Male genital glans eczema

Reproductive health is a matter of great concern to modern people, and it is also one of the problems that modern people are at high risk of encountering. In particular, male reproductive health issues have the greatest impact and can cause great damage to men's basic sexual functions. For example, the glans penis on the male genitals is a high-incidence site for diseases. Why is there often eczema on the glans penis of male genitals? Let's take a look at the explanation below.

Penile eczema can occur all year round and is related to sun exposure, sweating, and various allergens. Some people often think that penile eczema is contagious, and some people think that small red bumps on the genitals are penile eczema, and some people even associate penile eczema with sexually transmitted diseases.

Symptoms of infection

Clinical manifestations can be divided into primary and recurrent. Primary refers to the first infection with the virus, which generally takes about 2-10 days from contact to onset, which is the incubation period. The affected area first has a burning sensation, and soon 3-10 groups of red papules appear on the basis of erythema, accompanied by itching. The papules quickly turn into small blisters, and then turn into pustules after 3-5 days. After rupturing, large erosions and ulcers are formed, which are painful and finally heal with scabs. The entire course of the disease can last about 20 days.

feature

1. Exudative: As the name suggests, eczema will produce exudate. Otherwise, it is difficult to diagnose it as eczema without exudate. In addition, when eczema is in the chronic stage, the rash site may appear drier, but during an acute attack, there will still be exudate.

2. Itching: It is characterized by persistent itching, which cannot be resolved by distracting attention. When you calm down, the itching will worsen, forming a state of paroxysmal and persistent itching.

3. Persistence: Eczema is prone to recurrence, spreading from one part to another, and the symptoms are not easy to eliminate. If eczema is not treated properly in the acute stage, it will turn into chronic eczema, and if it is not handled properly at this time, it will lead to acute attacks again.

4. Generalized: Eczema can occur anywhere on the body, including the glans penis. If it occurs on the glans penis, it is called glans penis eczema.

5. Polymorphism: The rash of eczema is polymorphic and can be divided into primary rash and secondary rash. The primary rash includes papules and blisters, while the secondary rash includes erosion and exudation. Patients usually have primary rash and secondary rash at the same time.
