What is itchy penis skin?

Most men experience itching around their genitals due to lifestyle issues and their own physical constitution. So what is the cause? And how can it be treated?

1. What is the cause of penis itching in men?

1.1. Contact dermatitis

A very small number of men with allergic constitutions, when wearing underwear made of synthetic fiber materials, are prone to dermatitis reactions such as erythema and papules on the skin that touches the underwear, causing itching, because the underwear is close to the vulva skin and the part is easily wetted by sweat.

1.2. Balanitis

Most men with long foreskin or prepuce that is too long suffer from inflammation due to the accumulation of urine scale in the coronal sulcus of the foreskin, and some of them often experience itching.

1.3. Pubic lice

Pubic lice have unique hook-shaped claws that grasp the skin of the male pubic area and anal hair on the toes. The irritation of their bites and toxins in their saliva can cause itching, folliculitis and eczema-like changes in some skin.

1.4. Tinea cruris and tinea buttocks

Men who are obese and prone to sweating have their vulva sweaty and cold, which makes it very easy for bacteria to breed and grow, resulting in tinea cruris or tinea glutealis. The main symptoms are the appearance of ring-shaped red papules on the inner thighs or buttocks, which often cause scaling and itching.

1.5. Scrotal eczema

The specific manifestations are redness, swelling or scaling of the scrotal skin. Due to severe itching, the scrotal skin may become thickened and mossy after scratching.

2. How to treat male penile itching

Clean up immediately after sex; keep the area dry and apply powder to the scrotum appropriately; wear pure cotton, breathable underwear to help ventilation; use mild detergent, and use soap and soap powder as little as possible; relieve stress and take some nerve-nourishing medicines such as vitamin B21, B2, and oryzanol tablets.

Antihistamines can be taken orally to relieve itching, and non-steroidal analgesics can be applied externally to acne. It is generally not advisable to use hormones externally, because the scrotum can easily absorb these drugs, causing side effects such as skin redness, shrinkage and softening, capillary dilation and excessive hair. However, if other treatment methods are not effective and the condition is still serious, weak hormones can be used for a short period of time under the specific guidance of a doctor.

Keep clean and hygienic, wash the bed, clothes and other personal items with hot water to kill the bugs. Use insecticide to eliminate the bugs. Generally, you can use 20% sulfur paste to wipe the whole body for three days, twice a day. People over 12 years old can also use "Scabies Treatment" to eliminate the bugs. First, wipe the whole body below the neck, keep it for 24 hours, then take a shower, and wipe it repeatedly after a week. To completely cut off the source of infection, sexual partners need to be treated separately.

What should men pay attention to when their penis itches?

1. Don’t get addicted to tobacco

Scientific research has found that the penis of smokers is significantly smaller than that of non-smokers. Authoritative experts believe that smoking not only damages blood vessels, but also damages the penis tissue, causing it to become less elastic and less likely to expand.

2. Walk more

Whether it's a fat Sunday dinner, a drunken bout or an unhappy mood, taking a step is the right thing to do. A 20-minute run is just as reasonable as a 30-minute snatch workout.

3. Control blood sugar

Diabetes is the fastest path to a life of loneliness. In fact, more than half of all men with diabetes suffer from premature ejaculation. Diabetes hits the penis twice. It accelerates the progression of aortic disease, but it also slows the rate at which stimulants travel between nerves throughout the body, and let’s face it, a numb penis is not a happy penis.
