What's the matter with itchy balls?
Itching in the scrotum is most likely due to eczema of the scrotum. The eczema of the scrotum is prone to allergic reactions because the local skin is more prone to dampness, poor sweating, and sweat is not easy to evaporate. such as erythema, itching, papules or even erosion, crusting, scaling.
Acute scrotal eczema usually presents with marked oozing while chronic eczema presents with markedly thickened, dry, scaling skin. For the acute stage, it can be treated by wet compress with boric acid solution to reduce exudation, and then apply ointment. Of course, in daily life, we should pay attention to avoid eating spicy and irritating food, and wear loose, sweat-absorbing and breathable shorts.

What to do with scrotal eczema
Scrotal eczema is a type of eczema that occurs in the scrotum, and may also involve the penis or around the anus. It may be related to mental factors, emotional stress, immune status, and local environment. There is an individual's susceptibility, as well as the incentives of the living or working environment. The disease itself is not a contagious disease, but it may show a state of repeated attacks for many years.
In terms of treatment, the main purpose is to control symptoms, reduce recurrence, and improve the quality of life of patients, so most of them are symptomatic treatment or treatment. For example, when there are no blisters, erosion and exudation in the acute stage, calamine lotion and glucocorticoid ointment can be used. If there is exudation, you should choose a 3% boric acid solution or the like for cold and wet compresses. If there is erosion, but there is not much exudation, zinc oxide oil can be selected at this time, and vitamin C, calcium gluconate, and antihistamine can be given orally.
For the chronic phase, glucocorticoid ointment can be used continuously, or topical immunomodulatory inhibitors, such as calcineurin inhibitors, tacrolimus and pimecrolimus, can be selected for treatment. If it is stubborn eczema, you can also choose ultraviolet phototherapy. If there is prurigo nodularis, you can also choose to use liquid nitrogen freezing for treatment.

Male private parts care details
The skin of the male genital area is not much different from the skin of the rest of the body, so once a day is enough.
Men should change their underwear every day. This helps avoid infections, irritation and odors. If you're involved in activities that require a lot of sweating, changing them twice a day isn't an exaggeration. Cotton panties will allow your little brother to breathe, but are too loose for exercise.
It's a good habit to regularly check your penis and testicles for abnormalities. Abnormalities to look out for are: lumps, redness, ulcers, blisters, and warts (anything that strikes you as odd is worth talking to your doctor).
