What is the reason for the shedding of a thin layer of dead skin from the scrotal skin?

Patient's question:

It's like the skin of the scrotum shedding a thin layer of dead skin, which can be gently peeled off. It feels like dandruff, a bit itchy, and it's about 3 square centimeters in size. What disease could this be?

Doctor's answer:

?Hello! It might be dermatitis caused by local allergies or scrotal eczema. It is recommended to pay attention to hygiene. It is advisable to go to the hospital for a check-up to determine what you are allergic to, so you can avoid contact and prevent it from occurring again in the future. Pay attention to keeping the groin area clean and dry, and avoid spicy, greasy, or irritating foods in your diet. Consider using ketoconazole cream for topical treatment.
