What to do if the testicles are itchy

Itching of the skin under the testicles may be scrotal eczema. Scrotal eczema is common among male genital skin diseases. It is not transmitted through sexual intercourse, but it is stubborn and difficult to cure. Scrotal eczema often causes itching and irritation, and is prone to secondary infection. This disease has two types: acute and chronic. Occupational factors and living environment are closely related to the onset of this disease. Patients with scrotal eczema should pay attention to their diet, avoid irritation of the affected area as much as possible, and do not wear underwear too tight.

According to Chinese medicine theory, scrotal eczema is mainly related to exogenous dampness and heat. Dampness can cause heat and cause dampness and heat symptoms. Over time, dampness will damage the spleen, and heat will damage the yin and blood, resulting in a mixture of deficiency and excess. It is mostly caused by wind, dampness, and heat evil invading the skin. At the same time, the internal organs are weak, and the internal and external evils are combined, thus causing the disease. Scrotal eczema is mainly related to many factors such as sweating, damp perineum and scrotum, not taking a bath in time, or long-term mechanical friction, scratching, improper local medication, and various adverse stimuli, which are particularly obvious in summer. Fungi, bacteria, and even various viruses and other microorganisms are easy to breed in a warm, humid, and relatively closed environment, which is also an important inducement for scrotal eczema.

For the treatment of scrotal eczema, you can choose 9 grams of lithospermum officinale, fry it with an appropriate amount of sesame oil, and remove the lithospermum officinale when the oil turns purple. Apply the oil to the affected area several times a day. You can also choose 7 eggs, cook them and take out the egg yolks, put 50-100 grams of sesame oil in the pot, simmer the oil in the egg yolks over a low heat, and wait until the egg yolks are burnt, and apply the oil to the affected area frequently. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly treats diseases based on syndrome differentiation. Traditional Chinese medicine often divides scrotal eczema into two types: damp-heat syndrome and yin deficiency and blood dryness syndrome. Damp-heat syndrome is equivalent to acute scrotal eczema, and yin deficiency and blood dryness syndrome is equivalent to chronic scrotal eczema.

If you have scrotal eczema, you can eat more mushroom and amaranth soup. This dietary therapy can clear away heat and detoxify, and is very effective for anti-inflammatory and analgesic. Western medicine often uses oral hormones for treatment, but it is only a temporary solution and is prone to recurrence and damage to the skin of the affected area. In addition, hormone treatment has great side effects and is prone to drug dependence. Do not scratch frequently after getting sick, and choose cotton breathable fabrics for underwear.
