What causes a damp and cold scrotum?

Male friends should pay attention if they find that their scrotum is damp and cold, because it may be a symptom of some reproductive diseases. Common causes include chronic prostatitis, scrotal eczema, other inflammations, etc., which need to be diagnosed and treated in time.

1. Chronic prostatitis

The most likely cause of scrotal dampness and itching is autonomic nervous system dysfunction caused by chronic prostatitis. If the patient has symptoms of scrotal dampness and itching, as well as frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, swelling and discomfort in the perineum, painful ejaculation, fatigue, dizziness, insomnia, and low back pain, then it is very likely that he has prostatitis.

Solution: The damp and itchy scrotum caused by chronic prostatitis will disappear as long as the prostatitis is cured. If the prostatitis is not treated thoroughly, the symptoms of damp and itchy scrotum cannot be relieved. In life, in addition to actively treating prostatitis, you should also pay attention to quitting drinking, quitting spicy food, keeping a cheerful mood, not holding back urine, and not neglecting physical exercise.

2. Scrotal eczema

The main symptom of scrotal eczema is itching, which will become more severe as the condition becomes more serious. If it does not heal for a long time and it is constantly scratched, thin scabs and scales may form on the scrotal skin.

Solution: Scrotal eczema is related to allergies. Some drugs that are effective for allergies, such as cyproheptadine and chlorpheniramine, can also be used to treat scrotal eczema. In addition, you should avoid scratching the itchy area to prevent the bacteria on your hands from irritating the scrotum. Do not use too hot water when washing, and do not use drugs casually. Some spicy foods, including onions, garlic, ginger, coffee, alcohol and other irritating foods, should be consumed less to avoid further deterioration of eczema.
