Is this balanitis?

Patient's question:

On the right scrotum, there are two red, scaly patches that have been present for about ten days. They are not itchy but cause tenderness (especially when walking), and now the pain is becoming increasingly unbearable. Is this correct? What kind of assistance is needed: How to conduct a thorough examination? How to treat it well?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Your condition may be due to scrotal eczema or a fungal infection.
Advice: It is recommended to visit a dermatologist for a thorough examination. Scraping a small amount of skin for microscopic analysis can help with diagnosis, followed by appropriate treatment. Medication can be used for treatment.
Wishing you good health and happiness! Scrotal inflammation can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is important to use medications that target the symptoms during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
