Doctor's answer:
Contact dermatitis may occur in a small number of men with sensitive skin who wear underwear made of chemical fiber materials. Due to the tight fit around the perineal skin and the area being easily exposed to sweat, redness, papules, and other dermatitis reactions such as itching may develop on the skin in contact with the underwear. Some men who use condoms may also develop penile contact dermatitis due to an allergy to rubber. In such cases, the affected items should be immediately discontinued.
