Can scrotal eczema grow inside the foreskin with hook?

Patient's question:

Male, 30 years old, always feels discomfort in the private area and testicles. Can scrotal eczema grow inside the foreskin?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you with your question. For scrotal eczema, in most cases, the eczema is limited to the scrotal area. If inflammation reappears in the coronal sulcus of the prepuce, it should be considered as either inflammation or a fungal infection, which may lead to mucosal fibrosis, pearls, or skin lesions. In such cases, it is necessary to conduct a secretion test to determine the treatment plan based on the cause. Generally, it is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness of the genital area, and potassium permanganate sitz baths can be used. Apply relevant topical medications.
