Doctor,
First of all, I appreciate your efforts on this site. I really need some guidence on my problem from a well respected dermotologist like yourself. Please bear with me this time. :) Unfortunately, I have not been able to visit one in person due to my HMO medical plan. Have scheduled for early April, had to wait a month. I have had persistent groin irration, in particular a burning scrotum. My primary doctor believes it to be a fungal and/or yeast infection potentially caused by an cipro antibiotic reaction after 10 days of treatment but it has persisted for two months now. I have used mulitple over the counter creams as well as prescription steroid creams to treat it. Can it last this long to treat this sort of problem? Maybe I just haven't found the right cream? The base of my scrotum is still red and irrated to this day. I believe i have elimated the possibility that it could be caused by the more common STDs, cly, gon, herpes thru testing after 11 weeks. Also, my doctor has checked my for prostitus and she didn't find any problems. She has also run mulitple blood tests, urine tests etc. All normal. Any advice? Should i stick out the current fungal treatments? Can you think of anything else that may be wrong? Perhaps also my anxiety regarding this subject has been causing it to not heal as quickly as it should? Your advice and guidence would be greatly appreciated.
