Patient's question:
I have been experiencing intense itching and redness in my groin recently. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they diagnosed it as scrotal eczema. What are the treatment methods for scrotal eczema?Doctor's answer:
Scrotal eczema is a relatively common disease in men. It can be triggered by accidentally consuming allergenic foods, coming into contact with allergens, or being in a damp environment. In the treatment of scrotal eczema, the main focus is on controlling local inflammation. It is recommended to maintain dryness and hygiene in the lower body, and to apply topical creams containing hormones for treatment. Commonly used medications include hydrocortisone cream, pramiracetam cream, and others. Additionally, oral medications such as loratadine or cetirizine can be taken to complement the treatment and alleviate allergies.
