Scrotal eczema treatment method

Traditional Chinese medicine mainly treats diseases based on syndrome differentiation and treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine often divides scrotal eczema into two types: damp-heat invasion syndrome and yin deficiency and blood dryness syndrome for treatment. The syndrome of damp-heat descending is equivalent to acute scrotal eczema, and the syndrome of yin deficiency and blood dryness is equivalent to chronic scrotal eczema.

(1) The syndrome of damp-heat descending into the scrotum can be seen with millet-sized papules and small blisters on the scrotum. The skin feels burning and after scratching, there is a lot of exudate, erosion and scabs, which often soak the underwear. The tongue is red, the tongue coating is yellow and greasy, and the pulse is stringy and slippery. This is due to the dampness and heat evil flowing down the meridians to the genitals. Treatment should focus on clearing away heat and removing dampness.

Take it in decoction, 1 dose per day.

(2) Yin deficiency and blood dryness syndrome can be seen in the scrotal skin wrinkles becoming coarser and deeper, bleeding after scratching, and severe itching at night. The tongue is red, with little coating, and the pulse is thin and smooth. This is because the damp-heat evil damages the yin fluid over time, causing yin deficiency and blood dryness. The treatment should be to nourish yin, nourish blood and moisten dryness. The commonly used prescription is Danggui Yinzi plus or minus: Danggui 10g, Rehmannia glutinosa 20g, White Peony 10g, Chuanxiong 10g, Scrophularia 10g, Schizonepeta 10g, Saposhnikovia 10g, Dictamni 30g, Tribulus terrestris 10g, Raw Licorice 6g.
