Doctor's answer:
Considering it may be symptoms of scrotal eczema, patients with scrotal eczema primarily take antihistamines such as Claritin for medication. Topical treatments include corticosteroid creams like hydrocortisone. Before use, patients with scrotal eczema should be aware of potential side effects from the medication and avoid self-medication, especially when using corticosteroid drugs. New medications should be discussed with a doctor before use. Patients should follow a light, easily digestible vegetarian diet. Patients with scrotal eczema should pay special attention to maintaining regular bowel movements to facilitate toxin elimination. Avoid spicy, irritating foods and seafood that may trigger allergies or worsen symptoms, such as shellfish. Other foods that can exacerbate allergies include milk and eggs.
