Is scrotal eczema contagious?

In fact, scrotal eczema is not an infectious disease, but this phenomenon will have a lot of impact on men's reproductive health, so we need to focus on prevention from different aspects. It is taboo to scratch these parts, and pay attention to quitting smoking and drinking.

The first thing to tell patients is that scrotal eczema is not contagious. Clinically, scrotal eczema is an allergic skin disease related to genetic factors. The mechanism of the disease is caused by the interaction of internal and external factors. It is a delayed allergic reaction. Therefore, although scrotal eczema occurs in the male genital area, it has nothing to do with sexually transmitted diseases and is not a contagious disease. Usually, people with allergic constitutions, long-term mental tension, or people with greater emotional changes are prone to this disease.

1. Patients with scrotal eczema should avoid scratching, rubbing, and scalding the skin of the scrotum. For example, hot water, soap, salt water, alkaline water, etc. should not be used. At the same time, iodine, tinea medicine, garlic and other irritants should not be used. As long as the patient avoids scratching and irritating the skin, the disease will improve quickly.

2. If the patient frequently smokes, drinks, eats irritating foods, or often eats seafood, it is also easy to cause scrotal eczema. This is because the scrotum is the most sensitive area, and even a slight external stimulus will cause one problem or another, and eczema is one of them.

3. Scrotal eczema is often related to the patients' indiscriminate use of some irritating drugs. Some patients often take drugs privately because of infectious diseases in their genitals. The symptoms of the disease are solved at the time, but hidden problems arise, which is also the cause of scrotal eczema.

Scrotal eczema is a disease unique to men. The occurrence of this disease is often closely related to some external stimuli. Of course, there are many factors that lead to the disease. To treat scrotal eczema, we should also understand its cause and then carry out symptomatic treatment. This way the treatment effect is the best. At the same time, male friends are reminded to pay attention to private hygiene during treatment.
