Patient's question:
There is sweating in my scrotum, and sometimes there is semen leakage from my penis. Is it possible that I have a sexually transmitted disease?Doctor's answer:
Based on your condition, it is considered related to prostatitis and urethritis. Further tests such as a urinalysis and prostatic fluid analysis are needed to confirm the diagnosis before treatment. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, minimize the intake of spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, maintain good personal hygiene, and avoid holding in urine. Scrotal dampness is caused by prostatitis or epididymitis leading to the erosion of the epididymal ducts and leakage of semen. It can cause symptoms such as itching, eczema, foul odor, neurodermatitis, papules, redness, swelling, and thigh ringworm. In severe cases, it may result in the loss of sexual function.
