During sexual activity, it was painful below, but later I noticed that it seemed to have cracked. I don't know what's wrong.Doctor's answer:
It is possible that it could be eczema. The main symptom of eczema is severe itching. Many patients scratch the affected area out of unbearable itching, seeking temporary relief. This not only fails to alleviate the intense itching but also leads to secondary infections, worsening the condition. Therefore, refraining from scratching the affected area is a crucial aspect of daily eczema care.For stubborn skin conditions like eczema, paying attention to diet during treatment is also very important. It is recommended that eczema patients eat less spicy and irritating foods, as these can cause significant irritation to the skin and are not conducive to recovery. Additionally, foods that may trigger allergies, such as seafood and alcohol, should be avoided. This is another key point in daily eczema care.
