Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 24 years old this year. A few weeks ago, I was thoroughly examined and found to have tinea capitis. I heard from others that tinea capitis can lead to a decline in sexual function, and I am very worried. Therefore, I would like to consult the doctor to see if tinea capitis can cause a decline in sexual function?Doctor's answer:
Tinea capitis is a skin disease caused by fungal infection. If there is no infection of the reproductive system, it will not affect sexual function. This is a skin disease caused by simple fungal infection, which can be treated with antifungal drugs. It can also be treated with topical Chinese herbal washes. The effect is quite good, and tinea capitis is prone to recurrent infections, so prevention measures should be taken. It is recommended to eat less spicy and irritating food. The condition of male diseases is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, male patients should actively seek diagnosis in professional and regular hospitals and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
