Once we are ill, we must seek timely treatment. Let’s take a look at the situation of scrotal eczema.

Clinical manifestations

1. Acute scrotal eczema

The main symptom is itching, and patients often discover the disease due to itching of the scrotum. As the disease progresses, the itching gradually becomes more severe and scratching cannot relieve it. In severe cases, it affects sleep and work.

2. Chronic scrotal eczema

It is caused by long-term and repeated attacks of acute or subacute eczema. Due to a long period of time and constant scratching, the skin of the scrotum becomes dry and thickened, the wrinkles become deeper, and it becomes walnut-skin-like, often with thin scabs and scales, and the skin pigmentation darkens; there are also cases of hypopigmentation caused by scratching. Often severe itching, unable to sleep. Due to the difficulty in treatment and repeated failure to heal, the scrotal skin may show epidermal tumor-like changes.

3. Subacute scrotal eczema

It is transformed from acute scrotal eczema, characterized by mild thickening and mild erosion of the scrotal skin, more scales, very little exudate, and still severe itching.

treat

1. Medication

Since scrotal eczema is related to allergies like eczema in other parts of the body, medications used to treat allergies can be used to treat scrotal eczema. For example, some commonly used antihistamines include cyproheptadine, chlorpheniramine, loratadine, cetirizine, etc. Topical medications are mainly some weak corticosteroid ointments, such as triamcinolone ointment.

2. Scrotal care

Avoid re-irritating the area, avoid scratching the area with your hands as much as possible, do not use hot water or soapy water to clean the area, and do not apply highly irritating drugs locally. Pay special attention to not applying hormone drugs locally casually, as these can easily worsen or relapse the disease. Avoid eating some irritating foods, such as onions, ginger, garlic, strong tea, coffee, alcohol and other foods and drugs that are prone to cause allergies.
