Patient's question:
Recently, the area around my testicles on both thighs was itchy and painful. I applied several types of creams, and now it's better, no longer itchy. I wonder if it was due to the creams I applied. The past two days, there are some red spots near the head of my penis, but they don't hurt or itch if I don't scratch them. Down there, there are a few red spots that are slightly itchy. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
The described situation should be considered for the possibility of skin eczema. It can be resolved by locally applying povidone-iodine for sterilization, followed by applying calamine lotion or Hydrocortisone cream. During this period, personal hygiene should be paid attention to, wear loose and comfortable cotton underwear, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and seafood foods. The testicular condition is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is necessary to actively seek medical treatment in professional and regular hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on detailed examination results. Additionally, proper diet should be maintained, and sexual activity should be avoided.
