Introduction
Dietary Improvements: Adjusting one’s diet can further alleviate physical discomfort and effectively enhance overall physical fitness, thereby supporting the treatment of affected areas. Clothing Selection: When selecting underwear, choose loose-fitting, highly breathable styles made from 100% cotton fabric. After washing, hang the underwear in a location with ample sunlight to disinfect and sterilize.

If scrotal dampness in men is not addressed promptly, it may lead to conditions such as asthenospermia (reduced sperm motility). Management strategies for scrotal dampness include pharmacological treatment, dietary adjustments, and appropriate clothing choices.

① Pharmacological Treatment

Topical medications—such as corticosteroid ointments—may be considered to directly target the affected area and effectively alleviate associated pruritus (itching). However, self-medication is strongly discouraged. Patients should consult a local healthcare provider for proper evaluation; treatment regimens will be prescribed based on individual clinical findings.

② Dietary Adjustments

Dietary modifications can further help alleviate symptoms. Adopting a light, easily digestible diet promotes optimal nutrient absorption and enhances overall physical resilience, thereby supporting the management of scrotal dampness.

③ Clothing Selection

When selecting underwear, opt for loose-fitting, highly breathable styles made from 100% cotton fabric, which facilitates sweat absorption. Underwear should be changed and washed daily; additionally, they must be replaced immediately after physical activity. After washing, dry underwear thoroughly in direct sunlight to ensure effective disinfection and sterilization.
