Itching of the skin outside the testicles

Itching of the outer part of the testicle is also known as itching of the scrotum. The scrotum is an important organ in the male body and plays a role in protecting the testicles. However, there are many pubic hairs on the surface of the scrotum, which can easily cause various inflammations. Folliculitis is a common disease. The perineum is relatively moist, so many men will face the trouble of scrotal moisture and suffer. So, what is the reason for itching of the outer skin of the testicle?

1. Male scrotal itching and peeling often affects the entire scrotum, the affected area is extremely itchy, the course of the disease is long-lasting, recurrent, and cannot be cured. In the acute stage, there may be papules, small blisters, pustules, erosions, exudation, scabs and other changes. Scrotal itching and peeling is caused by a variety of internal and external factors. In the acute stage, it is mainly characterized by scrotal papules, erosions, and exudation, and in the chronic stage, it is an itchy skin disease characterized by epidermal hypertrophy and lichenification. The incidence of scrotal eczema is higher in summer and autumn. In the chronic stage, it manifests as deepening of skin grooves, hypertrophy of the skin, and rough leathery scrotal skin. If it is delayed or not treated properly, the acute and chronic stages may change, and the course of the disease will also last for many years.

2. Prevention of scrotal eczema

1. Keep it clean, not dirty: Men should develop a good habit of washing their lower body with warm water before going to bed, but be careful not to use too hot water. When washing, pay attention to the order, and the direction of scrubbing should be from top to bottom, from front to back, that is, wash the penis and scrotum first, and then wash the anus. Prepare a separate soft towel for wiping. If the foreskin is too long and you are afraid of surgery, you should be more diligent, and daily cleaning is essential. Every time you wash, you should turn up the foreskin and thoroughly clean the smegma.

2. Breathable, not closed: Men's underwear should be soft and breathable. It is not suitable to wear tight underwear. It is best not to wear jeans. Instead, wear loose pants to cool down and let the air flow. In addition, you may wish to sleep naked, which can make the private parts enjoy a rare comfortable feeling in the quiet night.

3. Be relaxed, don't force it: The standard reference value for normal male semen was 120 million sperm per milliliter in the late 1980s, but now it is only 20 million per milliliter; 1 in 6 couples of childbearing age have infertility problems; a significant decrease in male sperm count and infertility are closely related to an unhealthy lifestyle.
