Patient's question:
I have a line of itching between my testicles and anus sometimes. It's better during the day, but it's very itchy at night. It's not itchy every day, some days it is, and some days it's not. It's a bit swollen. It's been like this for a year. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Consider it as eczema, mainly related to personal hygiene, which can lead to scrotal eczema itching. Oral and topical medications are needed. It is recommended to take loratadine tablets orally, and additionally use calamine lotion externally. Drink more hot water, and base your diet on light food. Avoid spicy, irritating, and greasy fried foods. Pay attention to hygiene in the affected area, and do not scratch it with your hands to avoid infection. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment promptly at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
