Patient's question:
Sometimes, excessive sexual activity can cause itching at the base of the penis, excluding the testicles, but the itching is not severe. If you rub or engage in activity excessively, the itching may subside after a couple of days, and then it will go away for a few days. Occasionally, it may still itch. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
The most common cause of perineal itching is poor local hygiene. Frequent sexual activity, excessive sweating, secretion of sebaceous glands, and consuming too many spicy and irritating foods can all lead to this condition. It is recommended to avoid excessive sexual activity, engage in sexual intercourse no more than once a week, clean daily, change underwear frequently, and expose underwear to sunlight or boil them. It is also advisable to reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods. Testicular conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek medical attention immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations.
