Hello, thank you for asking.
The answer is a general description of the problem you’re having. Please click on this link (DoctorOnCall) to speak with us.
Based on the above information, we understand your concern about the problem you’re having. For your information, scrotal ulcer can be caused by a variety of things. These include:
- Pyoderma gangrenosum - inflammation of skin
- Fournier’s gangrene - a necrotizing fasciitis (connective tissue surrounding muscle, blood vessels and nerves of testicle) of the genital area
With regard to your case, in the event of an ulcer in the scrotum, you should consult a doctor for further treatment. Both possible cause explained above are associated with infection of the skin, hence prescription of antibiotics are needed to treat the cause. It is highly suggested that you consult a doctor urgently before the ulcer condition worsens. This is because inside the scrotum are testicles, where sperm are produced. Problems in this area can affect your fertility in the future.
To know the exact cause of the problem you are facing, more information is needed before a conclusion can be drawn. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you refer this problem to your doctor. Please click on this link (DoctorOnCall) to speak with us in person online. Thank you.
