Patient's question:
I used to have frequent itching in the groin area with red spots. After applying compounded miconazole ointment, it would be fine for about half a month, but it would recur later. It has been a problem for several years.This year, I started experiencing itching in the scrotum, especially in bed during winter. After scratching, it became red. In the bathroom, I noticed peeling skin in the itchy areas (these symptoms do not occur together). What could this be?
I smoke. Could it be related to smoking?
I am from the east and am not used to eating spicy food, but the food here is a bit spicy now.
Doctor's answer:
?There is something like mud in the scrotum, and there are also transparent, keratinous scale-like flakes that shed off. Itchy. This is a typical case of scrotal eczema.Hello. Your condition may be scrotal eczema. It is an allergic reaction and a common sexual organ skin disease in men, not a sexually transmitted disease. It is also known as "dust mite wind" or "cell leakage sore." It is very stubborn, and patients often experience pain or secondary infections due to scratching or inappropriate irritation.
