What are the treatment methods for scrotal eczema?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I am 24 years old this year. Last summer, I started to feel some itching in my lower body. At first, I thought it was a mosquito bite, but later I went to a small hospital for treatment and was misdiagnosed with tinea cruris. Later, the medication prescribed by the doctor didn't work, so I went back to the hospital again. The doctor said it was balanoposthitis. After treating it for a period of time, there was no improvement at all, so I would like to consult about the treatment methods for balanoposthitis?

Doctor's answer:

Scrotal eczema can be treated by applying triamcinolone acetonide and econazole cream externally. It is recommended to consult a specialized hospital for follow-up. Only after a thorough examination and diagnosis can targeted treatment lead to complete recovery. Avoid scratching to prevent infection. Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, as well as smoking and drinking beer, as these may hinder recovery. It is advisable to follow a light diet, get adequate rest, and consume more vegetables, fruits, and easily digestible liquid foods.
