    That's really not normal if it is severe itching. You need to get yourself off to the doctor - as soon as possible as this could be serious. If you are having intercourse (which i hope you're not..at your age) , it could be a STD - sexually transmitted disease - so you need to make sure the doctor checks if you are okay. If you're not having intercourse it could be a bladder infection that has spread, or thrush, or maybe even a yeast infection - so then again, see your doctor.

    Hey ,this is a minor situation of unhygienic and unclean under garments. To get rid of this scratching /itching situation you have to wash your body well with savalon lotion and later wash your panties well so that there is no soap in them as this is the main cause for the itch,As you say it is only on the left side then it is due to some infection ,then you should at least visit a doctor just to confirm that you are not infected with other serious deasies ,it is always better to get rid of the situation rather than delay and let it get worse and then repeant later leasurely.regarding the streaching of the left flap it will become normal if treated in time .Please do call on the urologist at least .He/ she is one who can at least give you some medicine to reduce the itch some thing like (BETNOVITA -C-) a cream for external application only on the itchy part and not on any open wound.wishing you all the best in fast recovery.

    First of all - you have a bad case of the "Foul Duck Butter Syndrome". don't worry it's not as bad as the existing diseases you already are stricken with. Basically you need clean the bacteria from the "tainted" area, in effect removing the so-called Duck Butter. There are several home remedies such as soft-scrub, sand paper and a mild acid (such as citrus zest). Of those I recommend rubbing an orange and a lemon on you rashing nether region. For over-the-counter help - go with some high end poison ivy creams and cleansers. This stuff really works and feels Sooooo good. It you don't wanna spend $30 bucks on your scrote-rash then try some simple Hydrogen peroxide diluted in water. Fill up a bucket and dip your wrinkly bag and stankey brown eye right into the 1-gallon bucket 3 to 6 times a day.

    You might have a yeast infection internally that has spread to the outside. Try some monostat cream. Follow directions for internal use and use it on the outside too. You can find it at any drug store.

    You do need to go to the doctor anyway. Why would you risk your life? It could be something worse and only by going to the doctor will you know and be able to get the proper treatment to get well.

    It really seems like you may well have either thrush or herpes, im hoping its the first.

    Try some cream on it that relieves the itching in the intimate area. But i really would go see doctor if i was you.

    Sounds like a bacteria infection, but could be your PH level, there is a new product, you can try over the counter--if it helps its your PH if not you need to see a Dr.--they can fix the problem with one prescription--its worth going. You can go to your local Health Dept. for free and it will be confidential.

    You should go to the doctor. I understand it's embarrassing, but you have to do it! I'm the same as you, I hate going to doctors & I get embarassed, but in the end, there's nothing they haven't seen before & they are there to help. Make sure you see a female doctor, that will help a lot! :)

    It could easily be a yeast infection but you need to see the doc and get checked. Your regular doc can handle all of this kind of stuff. No need to see a GYN doc when your regular doc can handle it.

    Use alcohol wipes. And wash frequently! Be sure to take showers EVERY day. If it persists, go to a doctor.
