Patient's question:
When taking a nap, sometimes halfway through, the inner thigh near the testicles itches, and then I scratch it. This has been going on for a long time. The skin in these areas has been damaged from scratching. Only this side itches; the other side never does. Now, the skin in this area feels very dry. What's the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Considering allergic eczema, the mechanism is still allergic-induced. The treatment for blisters, peeling, and itching is essentially anti-allergic treatment, using topical anti-allergic medications. Since eczema avoids water, it is important to minimize contact with water and try to suppress scratching. The testicles can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, patients should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
