Lichen Simplex
Hi, I got Lichen Simplex on my whole scrotum. It is very itchy and burning. Please suggest any over the counter cream to cure this itchiness and also suggest precautionary measures to remove this. My scrotum skin becomes too thick while itchying now it reaches to the fore skin of my penis. When I had this last time it used to go away when it is reaches to foresckin of the head of the penis but please suggest any over the counter medication to remove this. Thank you.
