Doctor's answer:
Generally, severe scrotal dampness is often caused by yin deficiency or prostatitis. It is important to get checked and diagnosed promptly. Targeted treatment is usually recommended. In most cases, Liuwei Dihuang Wan and Jin can be taken for treatment. Pay attention to physical exercise and increase dietary nutrition. Consuming more foods that tonify the kidneys will be beneficial for the condition.Patients with scrotal dampness should practice abstinence and reduce the frequency of sexual activity. Proper care should also be taken, avoiding scratching or irritating the skin, maintaining good personal hygiene, and ensuring the area remains clean and dry. Underwear should be made of breathable cotton to prevent overheating and worsening symptoms. Additionally, avoid smoking, alcohol, and stimulants, as well as staying up late. Drink plenty of water, exercise regularly, and reduce the intake of spicy, cold, greasy, or irritating foods. Abstinence from sexual activity is required during treatment. Avoid getting cold and maintain a positive mood.
