How to treat infantile scrotal eczema?

Patient's question:

My child has been crying and refusing to take naps recently. Later, I noticed some small red bumps around his scrotum. I quickly took him to the hospital for a check-up, and the result was infantile scrotal eczema.
Hello doctor, what is the most effective treatment for infantile scrotal eczema?

Doctor's answer:

The main thing for infant scrotal eczema is to ensure dryness in the genital area. You can apply some ointment externally and bathe the baby with warm water daily to clean the genital area. You can also apply some talcum powder, and then dress the child in pure cotton breathable underwear. If the child is still using diapers, it's best not to use them for a while. As long as you persist for a period of time, it will naturally improve.
