What is the cause of itchy and painful foreskin?

Patient's question:

When my husband takes a bath, he always wants to scratch his lower part. I asked him what was wrong, and he told me that his foreskin is super itchy, so he just wants to scratch and scratch. During intimacy, his mood isn't high either, and he finishes in just two minutes. This makes him very anxious, even during training for napping, he can't feel at ease. What could be causing the itching and pain in his foreskin?

Doctor's answer:

The foreskin has appeared itchy again, accompanied by a headache. This is abnormal, and it is recommended to seek early treatment at a local hospital. The most common causes of foreskin itching and pain are viral and bacterial infections leading to sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). STDs are highly contagious diseases, and during sexual activity in daily life, they can cause cross-infection between partners. Moreover, at this time, treating the disease is relatively difficult. In clinical diagnosis, the only effective treatment is through a circumcision surgery.
