First I used OTC Lotrimin for 1.5 weeks, then PCP changed to prescription anti-fungal (I think fluconazole, but not certain) and I used that for 1 week until I saw a Dermatologist who said this didn’t look fungal to him and that after 2.5 weeks if fungal I should’ve seen improvement. Dermatologist said it was red scrotum syndrome (ever hear of that?) and put me on gabapentin. So I tried antifungals for a total of 2.5 weeks. Does that seem long enough to treat if fungal, or would you suggest trying the antifungals again for awhile?
