Patient's question:
I am 27 years old, male. My scrotum has developed some small bumps recently, which are very itchy. Later, I went to the dermatology department for a thorough examination and was told it was scrotal eczema. How should I deal with scrotal dampness and itching?Doctor's answer:
Scrotal dampness is one of the typical symptoms of chronic prostatitis, and it is also related to long-term sitting, working in hot environments, and varicocele. Due to the numerous folds and abundant sweat glands in the scrotal skin, as well as its strong excretory function and poor air circulation, wearing synthetic fabrics or tight undergarments can worsen the situation. Patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
