Yes, you can absolutely get eczema on the scrotum. It is highly sensitive skin, so sweat and tight clothes make it worse. Don't feel awkward about it, just book an appointment with a dermatologist and get it sorted out instead of suffering in silence.
I know the struggle of dealing with sensitive skin issues in private areas. Since the skin there is very thin and easily irritated, please be very gentle. Avoid using heavily scented soaps or body washes down there until you can speak with a specialist.
It can be eczema, but it could also be a fungal infection which looks very similar. I always go to a proper dermatologist at a reputed hospital for these things because using the wrong cream can thin the skin there. Please ask a doctor clearly before putting any random tube.
Yes, unfortunately, eczema doesn't spare any spot! 😂 It can happen there due to friction or sweat. Try wearing loose cotton boxers and keep the area dry. A doctor will easily fix you up with a mild soothing cream!
Yes, you can get it there. Keep the area clean, dry, and definitely see a skin doctor soon.

Yes, eczema can affect scrotal skin, leading to intense itching and redness. It is best to avoid self-treating with over-the-counter steroid creams as they can be too strong for that delicate area. Consulting a qualified dermatologist is the safest and most effective way forward.
