What is the reason for the itching around the penis?

Generally speaking, the crotch we refer to is the side of the penis. Many men inexplicably find that the side of their penis is itchy, and they don't know what's going on, let alone how to treat it. It is recommended that you learn more about the causes of itching around the penis, and then treat it according to the specific causes. The following is an introduction to the causes of itching around the penis.

When it comes to itching under the crotch on both sides of the penis, the first thing we consider is tinea cruris, which is a skin disease that often occurs in the thigh area. Sometimes it can also affect the perineum, mons pubis, perianal area, buttocks, scrotal folds, etc. The itching is severe, and due to scratching, the patient may develop secondary dermatitis, lichenification or secondary infection.

Tinea femoris often occurs in the external genitalia, groin, perineum and around the anus. The damage is manifested by the appearance of small papules or blisters at the upper end of the inner thigh corresponding to the scrotum, which then spreads to the surrounding area to form a semi-circular lesion. The edges of the lesions are clear and raised. After the inflammation subsides, the lesions become reddish brown with scaling. It is usually unilateral, but can also be symmetrically distributed on both sides.

If the crotch on both sides of the penis is itchy, it is also very likely scrotal eczema. The symptoms of scrotal eczema are that the scrotal area always starts to be moist and slightly itchy. When it attacks, the scrotal skin is flushed, itchy, and has papules. When the itching is too much, the smooth red skin can be exposed. Sometimes the pants rub against it, which is also painful, but most of the time it is very itchy, especially at night, which is uncomfortable. Severe symptoms of scrotal eczema include severe scrotal itching, loss of appetite, loose stools, yellow urine, and sometimes water blisters and erosions. People will feel hot, but the body temperature has not increased when measured with a thermometer.

What are the symptoms of penile drug allergy? In mild cases, the penis becomes swollen, shiny, tender, and the skin of the penis becomes hot, itchy, and erythematous. In severe cases, the skin of the penis becomes swollen, ulcerated, exudates, and painful, making it difficult to walk, and accompanied by general discomfort. Penile allergy can occur within seconds or minutes after contact with the allergic drug, or it can occur after a few hours, but it can also occur slowly after long-term or repeated contact with the drug.

Now everyone should understand what is going on with itching around the penis. Men who have itching symptoms can check what causes it and then treat it accordingly. However, if you are not sure of the cause of your illness, you cannot just take medicine. The best way is to choose a professional men's hospital for treatment and strive for early recovery.
