Patient's question:
I have had severe prostatitis for a long time. During the treatment, there were some effects, but usually, my scrotum itches a lot, with tiny itchy bumps. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I am not sure whether the condition you mentioned is bacterial prostatitis or aseptic prostatitis. If it is aseptic, it is still better to follow the treatment recommended by traditional Chinese medicine for damp-heat accumulation in the lower body.Advice: The itching you are experiencing now is most likely due to eczema caused by dampness in the scrotal skin. You can switch to breathable underwear and avoid rough cotton that does not allow air to circulate. Also, make sure to change frequently and avoid sitting for too long. The itching may subside on its own. I wish you a speedy recovery. Prostatitis tends to recur, so long-term medication is necessary.
