Itchy around the penis

Patient's question:

A hot sensation around the penis makes it very itchy, and it gradually expands in scope. Once the area expands, it only itches at the periphery, and the skin color is different from the surrounding area. The periphery has small red bumps.

Doctor's answer:

Hello! It could be a urinary and reproductive system infectious disease, possibly including fungal infection, balanitis, balanoposthitis, pseudopapillomatosis, eczema, folliculitis, tinea cruris, and so on. Infectious diseases can be transmitted through sexual contact. If there has been unsafe sexual contact, it is possible to have sexually transmitted diseases such as genital herpes. It is recommended that you get tested promptly for a definitive diagnosis and then receive targeted treatment after identifying the cause.
