Itchy scrotum, flakey skin
I've experience skin problems around my scrotum for many years and tried various different creams and approaches. None seem to ever fully solve the problem. Steroid cream does work but for a short period. The skin appearance and texture improves but the itch tends to persist.

This is called Neurodermatitis. We need to break the itch scratch cycle. Non steroidal creams are there which can help you. Please call me or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment.
