Has anyone had chronic itchiness of the scrotum that persists?

I have an itchy groin itch. My doctor said it was “probably “ fungus. And it had a horrible odor. I don’t walk around with this odor. Nobody including myself would get a wife of it.
I ended up at a dermatologist office and she said she would give me some cream to be applied at bedtime daily.
It disappeared and I no longer had any symptoms. A few weeks later it came back. So I called her and she had the prescription cream delivered to me from my pharmacy. (They deliver). It comes and goes. Seems like I need this cream around me to stop the itch.
It’s been 2 years and I’m still having to use the cream when needed. I’m clean and so is my clothes. Anyone know what I should do?

Go back to your Dermatologist and have her do scraping of the scrotal skin area and send to see if their is bacteria or fungus there and see if Pathologist finds any abnormality of the skin. Has she told you what her diagnosis is? i.e. fungus as in jock itch, bacteria, eczema, psoriasis? She must give you a name i.e. diagnosis. I think all men have itchiness of our areas. Do you sweat a lot?
