Skin :: Itchy Spot On Scrotum - Partner Has Recurrent Bacterial Vaginosis

For about 3 months now, my fiance has had an intensely itchy area on the left underside of his scrotum.  We tried numerous powders and creams, both medicated and unmedicated.  Some would work for a few minutes to a few hours but nothing "cured" it.  The area is very wrinkly and dry looking.  He scratches and itches it so much that it starts to get raw.  I stopped using any laundry detergent at all on his boxers and just washed them in water.  He said it helps, he isn't as itchy as he was before, but its not going away. 

My crazy mind is now going all over the place to try to solve this and I began to wonder....

I, myself, have been suffering from recurrent episodes of bacterial vaginosis for about 2 years.  I treat it with vaginally inserted metronidazole and it goes away.  Then, sometimes weeks, sometimes months later, it comes back.  I just did some research and am going to try some home remedies for myself. 

I find conflicting information online about men and a bacterial infection.  I read that it is uncommon for men to get this and if they do they USUALLY have no symptoms.  Is it possible that he got it from me and is now starting to show symptoms?  And I only treat myself so are we just passing it back and forth?  Maybe these are two completely different issues but I have to wonder and ask.  I hate to see him so uncomfortable all the time, and I know I hate the symptoms I get with my BV.

STD? Red Dot / Spot On Scrotum Wall

A little description, I am a fit 18 yo male. I have never had sex, up until very recently, and I have had these spots before being sexually active.

To me it feels like a wart, although I've never had one I don't believe this to be any type of ingrown hair from shaving. I am very worried, I do not want to give my girlfriend any STD's and I will be getting tested this week, however I'd just like to know asap if there's much to worry about. So, what is this red dot?

Dermatology :: White Spot On My Scrotum

I few days ago I noticed a white spot on the right side of my scrotum. The spot is no bigger than a dime and when I stretch my skin it doesn't show any abnormal grown and the spot is harder to notice. Another thing I noticed is when my scrotum is relax is harder to find but when it is the tense state is much easy to notice.

I've had jock itch before but it last some weeks max....

I'm in a monogamous relationship for some years now.

So I'm very confuse, it is a fungal infection? or simply a white spot? or something else?

Small Spot On The Underside Of My Scrotum?

I'm 13, approaching 14 later this year and I have a small, singular spot on the underside of my scrotum. It's toward the right side, and looks similar to an acne spot. Keep in mind I already have pubic hair so it can't be those spots. When I say small, it's pretty much the size of the tip of a slightly blunt pencil.

Cancer? Pimple-Like Spot On Scrotum

45-year old male. A few weeks back I noticed a red and inflamed pimple-like bump (possibly a pimple) on the very bottom area of my scrotum. It stayed red and tender for a few days and eventually became much less irritated and much less red. Now, several weeks later, it's still there, still looking simliar to a pimple, but not as bad as it did the first days. I guess my main reason for posting is to relieve my mind that this isn't a cancerous cyst or lump. It doesn't go deep beneath the skin, it is the size of a pimple, it might be a pimple. Would a cancerous bump or lump or lesion be similar to this? Anybody want to ease my mind or have me race to the doc to get it looked at? Thanks for reading and for any replies.
I haven't had any sexual relations in some time, so an STD is out of the question unless my hand gave it to me.

Men :: Singular Tiny Spot On Scrotum

I am 14 years old and I am only about 6 months into puberty. I have never had any sex in my life. The other day in school, I noticed that a part of my scrotum hurt a little bit. When I got home, I found a very small white spot on my scrotum that stuck out like a pimple. It was probably only a mm in diameter, and it hurt when I touched it. Today when I got home, I checked it again. Now it is way shorter and doesn't hurt as much, and it is red. Is this a pimple? Do you think the pimple head just fell off during the day?

STDs :: Scar Like White Spot On My Scrotum

I have a white spot almost looks like a scar but isn't raised on my scrotum. The scrotum it self seems a little red on the lower part, it was slightly itchy the red area but I used some cortisone cream and no longer itches, I'm not sure but the scrotum may be slightly inflamed. It does not burn when I urainate or ejectulate . I had a high risk sexual encounter but used a condom and some light kissing 4 days ago. could this be an std or jock itch? since I've been working outside more a sweating more.

Skin :: Wine Color Spot On Arm ... Age Spot?

Did anyone ever notice to suddenly appear on the arm a small spot of deep wine color of the size of a little fingernail? Then I believe with time it turns brown. Yes, I'm a senior and I'm afraid these are old age spots, but I'm puzzled that they should appear as a wine color. I only noticed this twice in my life. My other age spots appear just brown.

Men Issues :: Scrotum Skin Loose And Rough

My scrotum was dry/leathery one day last week. The extreme dryness went away but now the skin it tough and extra wrinkled when tight. And it is very loose and doesn't have elasticity at other times. I noticed that they are tight/semi normal when I wake up but by the time I get home from work in the evening, they are very saggy. They itched for one day and has since stopped. I started using Tinactin 4 days ago, I'm not sure if its working or not yet. I have a doctor's appt soon but I would like any feedback on this now??

Skin :: Itchy Red Bumps Stomach Upper And Lower Thighs And Scrotum

i am a 19 year old asian male. I have developed LOTS of different kinds of skin problems. But about 3 months ago, i started getting itchy legs, I started scratching and developed patches on my legs that have small red dots. i also developed some sort of raised rash on my face (under my eyes, cheeks, and eyebrows). I have similar raised rashes as the one on my face on the back of my neck, and the crease of my leg (behind my knee). I also recently started to develop red dots all over my lower stomach, upper legs and thighs. they almost seem like an allergic reaction, but I haven't really done anything different than i normally would. I occasionally get a rash on my armpit. I will not wear deodorant when i have this, and it will eventually go away, but as soon as it goes away the other armpit tends to develop the same thing. I also have small bumps all over my elbows and part of my arms. THey feel extremely rough. If you were to rub it, you would think you were touching some sort of lizard. Also, my butt cheeks have been getting itchy and it leads all the way to my scrotum. The itch on my scrotum isn't unbearable

WIth all these different kinds of rashes last week, all the affected areas on my buddy (even though, they are different kinds of rashes) started to puss a yellow honey like liquid. I kept wiping it off, but when i woke up the next morning, they had turned into something similar to a scab. some of them peeled off, and i had a shiny smooth skin under it.

I don't' know what's going on. All i know is that im tired of itching, and not being able to sleep at night. THIs has been effecting my daily life very badly. I would like to see a dermatologist, but I do not have health insurance. If there is anyone that has any of the same kind of problems, or have any form of help, it would be appreciated sooooo much.

So anyone out there who has these stupid things I feel you.

Skin :: Spot On My Head/hair

I've had a spot on back of my head ages now. What seems like a couple of years.

I had tried and squeezed it once and it did go smaller but it seemed to gradually come back.

I haven't tried any treatments as I am not sure what will work.

It doesn't hurt me but it's just not nice to feel.

Skin :: Purple Spot On My Butt

Today I discovered a blue purple spot at the top of my butt near the crack. It isn't raised but it is sore when I touch it. What is this? It looks like a very small bruise but I don't remember falling so i don't think it is.. I'm very nervous about it because I had an abscess around this time last year and I had to have it lance which was very painful and i don't want to go through that again. However, this bump looks quite different from the abscess I had. Please help!

Acne :: Dry Skin? Brown Spot Below My Bottom Lip, Above My Chin

Okay, so what is exactly is this? I've had it for a year and a half and it's really getting on my nerves. I have problems with dry skin, so maybe this is the result of me not getting enough moisture? Could it be melasma? Anyway here are some pictures :I'm pretty sure it's not melasma, but then again that's coming from the person that doesn't know what's going on with her face. Can someone please tell me what this brown anathema occupying my face is?! Or the cause of it?

Dermatology :: Spot Next To My Navel? Liver Spot Or Something Else?

A couple of years ago I noticed a brownish spot appeared next to my belly button. A friend told me it was probably just an age spot / liver mark (although I am 20). Yesterday, I noticed it was flaking off and itchy. Today, it looks like this. Reddish but white in the middle. I'm really concerned and have been anxious over this since last night. Does anyone know what this could be?? (The redness around my navel has been there for a while too.)
