What are male scrotal pimples?

In life, many people do not pay attention to small changes in their bodies. They only go to the hospital for examination when the symptoms are more obvious or even when obvious pathological symptoms appear. If a man has pimples on his scrotum, it is likely that there is inflammation inside or bacterial infection. If skin diseases such as eczema are ruled out, then it is necessary to consider whether it is caused by orchitis.

Orchitis is usually caused by bacteria and viruses. The testicles themselves rarely have bacterial infections. Since the testicles have a rich supply of blood and lymph, they have a strong resistance to bacterial infections. Bacterial orchitis is mostly caused by inflammation of the adjacent epididymis, so it is also called epididymo-orchitis. Common pathogens are Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, etc. Viruses can directly invade the testicles, the most common of which is the mumps virus, which mainly invades the parotid glands of children. However, this virus also likes to invade the testicles, so viral orchitis often occurs shortly after the onset of mumps.

Orchitis is a common disease in men's medicine. It is clinically divided into two types: acute purulent orchitis and mumps orchitis. Acute purulent orchitis is the most common. There are many causes of orchitis, such as infection, trauma, and tumor.

Clinical manifestations

1. High fever and chills.

2. Testicular pain, with radiating pain in the scrotum, thigh and groin areas.

3. The diseased testicles are swollen and tender. If purulent, there is a fluctuating feeling of purulent accumulation upon palpation.

4. Often accompanied by scrotal skin redness and swelling and intrascrotal hydrocele.

5. Children with viral orchitis may sometimes experience parotid gland enlargement and pain.

Prevention

1. Middle-aged men should pay attention to their testicle care. Testicle care is an important means to solve men's sexual dysfunction.

2. If you feel any pain during massage, it may be orchitis or epididymitis. Please go to the hospital for examination immediately.

3. Bilateral lesions of acute mumps orchitis can cause irreversible damage to spermatogenesis and even testicular atrophy, leading to male infertility.

4. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and increase the intake of vitamin C and other ingredients to enhance the body's anti-inflammatory ability.

5. Avoid eating spicy food, smoking, drinking, standing or sitting for long periods of time, excessive sexual activity, frequent masturbation, etc.
