Patient's question:
I feel like I might have orchitis. I noticed that the skin on my testicles is particularly red, and it seems a bit swollen. It also hurts when I touch it. These symptoms have persisted for a week without any improvement. I'm still young and haven't even been married yet. I'm really scared. Could it be a condition if the surface of the testicles is peeling and itchy?Doctor's answer:
According to the dismissal of the lawsuit, the possibility of tinea cruris cannot be ruled out. Tinea cruris refers to a skin fungal disease that recurs on the human scrotum and groin area. This skin fungal disease caused by dermatophyte infection primarily occurs in the groin area, hence the name tinea cruris. This fungal disease can spread to the perineum, perianal area, and buttocks, hence the name "tinea cruris and perineal." The occurrence of tinea cruris is also related to poor local hygiene and the presence of other skin fungal diseases. During the course of the disease, secondary furunculosis may occur due to scratching and transmission. It is recommended to visit a formal urological hospital for relevant examinations to identify the cause and provide symptomatic treatment. Wishing you good health. For patients with urological diseases, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility.
