Well,my hubby suffers very bad itching in the same places you mention,but he is a very fit 76yr old. He says just the same drives him mad. He showers every day,so no problem there. He's tried no end of creams. What does help is the Antibacterial gel,that you would usually use for your hands,but it stings a bit when he first puts it on,but he says that's better than the itching.
Another thing he's trying at the moment,is no pants on for bed,allow some freedom. This seems to be working. He'd kill me if he knew what I was posting here😂
Does the pain get worse with long periods of sitting and activity? Have you suffered any injuries in the hip and thigh area? For my case, I had somewhat similar symptoms brought on by an injury to the iliacus and psoas muscles, resulting in irritation or compression of the genito-femoral nerve. This nerve can cause pain in the scrotum and pain on urination. My pain lasted 5 months as the problem was initially misdiagnosed, made worse by the fact that I was on anti coagulation medication and did not rest the affected muscles. Like you, I was treated for months by dematologists and urologists. Mediation included antibiotics and various types of painkillers (Lyrica/pregabalin works best for me). The whole experience was mentally distressing. Finally, the problem was discovered after an MRI of the pelvis. It took a further 8 weeks for the pain to resolve. Hope you find the cure to your pain soon.
