What causes scrotal dandruff?

Summer is the best time for viruses to spread. However, it is precisely because of this reason that various skin diseases and various sexually transmitted diseases have arisen. Scrotal dandruff is a disease that men are more likely to suffer from in summer, but many men do not pay attention to it, which aggravates the severity of the disease. Let's take a look at what scrotal dandruff is.

You need to pay attention to the possibility of scrotal eczema. Scrotal eczema is the most common skin disease of the scrotum. It is an allergic reaction and a common skin disease of the genitals in men. It is not a sexually transmitted disease. The causes of scrotal eczema are more complicated, including internal and external factors. People with allergic constitutions, long-term mental tension, and emotional fluctuations are prone to this disease; in addition, people with some diseases, such as chronic digestive system diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, endocrine disorders, and metabolic disorders, are also prone to this disease under the influence of external factors.

External factors include:

1. The living and working environment is humid, and the air humidity is relatively high;

2. External stimulation, cold or hot, excessive sweating, excessive scratching, etc.;

3. Tight underwear, friction with foreign objects, and wearing synthetic underwear can induce scrotal eczema. The main clinical symptoms are: itching. As the disease progresses, the itching gradually worsens. Scratching cannot relieve the itching. In severe cases, it affects sleep and work.

Symptoms of the rash include:

(1) Small papules, rashes and small blisters: Densely distributed millet-sized papules or small blisters with a flushed base can be found in the scrotum.

(2) Exudate and erosion: Itching causes scratching, which causes papules, papule herpes, edema and other skin lesions to be scratched, causing fluid to ooze out continuously, often soaking the underwear and forming erosion. The course of the disease is long, and repeated attacks make the skin thick, rough and pigmented. It is recommended that you pay attention to the hygiene of the external genitalia, avoid spicy and stimulating food, quit smoking and drinking, avoid scratching the skin, avoid washing with hot water or soapy water, pay attention to rest, and relax.

For this kind of skin disease, it is not caused by a single skin reason. It may also be due to internal endocrine disorders. In order to avoid these diseases in summer, it is recommended that you eat more fruits and vegetables to replenish the nutrients in the body, which can greatly reduce the chance of illness.
