Why is the scrotum wet?

Men often experience moist scrotum, which is a very uncomfortable feeling. In addition, other symptoms may also occur in the scrotum, such as itching. In short, men should pay attention to this problem. First of all, they should pay attention to personal hygiene and adjust their personal emotions. So what are the causes of moist scrotum in men?

Why is the scrotum wet?

Scrotal dampness refers to symptoms such as erosion, dampness, and itching of the male scrotum caused by spleen and kidney deficiency, drug allergy, vitamin deficiency, fungal growth, etc. It is a male-specific skin disease. So, what are the main causes of male scrotal dampness?

The causes of scrotal eczema are complex, including internal and external factors. People with allergic constitutions, chronic mental tension, and mood swings are prone to this disease; in addition, people with certain diseases, such as chronic digestive system diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, endocrine disorders, and metabolic disorders, are also prone to this disease under the influence of external factors.

Scrotal dampness and itching refers to abnormal sensations such as excessive sweating, dampness or coolness without any changes on the scrotal skin surface. The scrotum has a certain relaxation function, and there are a large number of sweat glands in its skin, which can regulate the local temperature. If the sweat secreted by the scrotum cannot be dissipated in time, the local temperature rises, and the sweat secretion increases, the scrotum will always feel damp. A long-term excessive sweating and damp scrotum is prone to inflammation and unbearable vulvar itching.

How to reduce scrotal moisture in daily life? Frequent scrotal moisture is an irresistible natural law, and we can only let it go. If you can do the following points, you may be able to reduce the discomfort caused by scrotal moisture:

1. Develop the habit of bathing or cleaning your scrotum every day;

2. Do not wear tight pants, especially synthetic underwear;

3. Eat a reasonable diet and avoid obesity, otherwise excessive nutrition and excess calories will increase the amount of scrotal sweating;

4. Avoid drinking alcohol and eating less spicy food to prevent the blood vessels in the scrotal skin from dilating and increasing sweating.

What causes scrotal dampness?

1. Excessive spleen dampness

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, part of the reason for male scrotal moisture is due to excessive spleen dampness. The human body's water metabolism is mainly carried out by three internal organs, the first is the lung, the second is the spleen, and the third is the kidney. Some men with scrotal moisture have spleen obstruction, which results in food and water not being properly transported to various parts of the body.

There are many reasons for spleen dampness, including congenital and acquired reasons. The congenital reason is inherited from parents, and the spleen function is weak. Another reason is acquired, such as poor health, frequent illness, etc. These reasons will lead to severe spleen dampness. When the spleen function is not good, the transportation and transformation function is not good, which affects the spleen's water and moisture transportation function. This is why people with spleen dampness often have loose stools. Some people with spleen deficiency are prone to dampness in the scrotum, which is caused by poor water and moisture transportation and spleen deficiency.

2. Dampness and heat in the lower part of the body

As for the problem of scrotal dampness, damp heat in the lower part of the body is also one of the causes, and this situation is caused by natural climate and unclean diet. For example, people who like to drink and eat spicy food often have particularly large damp heat, stick out their tongue, have thick and greasy fur, sticky yellow urine, and also have scrotal dampness.

In addition to dietary reasons, it is of course related to climate. If it is often rainy, humid and hot, the scrotum of people with spleen deficiency will be even more moist.

3. Chronic prostatitis

You may not know that one of the typical symptoms of chronic prostatitis is scrotal dampness. In addition, it is also closely related to long-term sitting and working in an overheated environment. If you are a patient with prostatitis, scrotal dampness is related to prostatitis. This is because the scrotal skin has many wrinkles, many sweat glands, strong secretion, and air circulation is not easy. Wearing tight underwear such as synthetic fiber will make the ventilation worse.
