Yellow buildup

---

Some of my pubic hair, only my testicals, is yellowish and has a buildup of some kind on it. Any ideas on what it is?

I think there's a name for it but I can't remember. What I recall it's a bacterial growth. I may be wrong though.

Yes, I remember someone found an description of it on the Net. It can be other colours (whitish or brown), and can also occur on underarm hair (which is where I've had it). It goes away if you treat it with an antiseptic.

would that be a perscription antiseptic?

Not necessarily. Since you're not taking it by mouth but only rubbing it on the hair, you could use a bathroom antiseptic. (But not chlorine bleach! - that's far too strong for skin.) You could use any sort of antiseptic that's suitable for skin.
