What Causes Itching Inside the Male Testicles?
Disease description:
My brother recently mentioned that he hasn’t been feeling well. When I asked for details, I learned that he frequently experiences itching and discomfort inside his testicles. He feels too embarrassed to seek medical evaluation at a hospital, so I’d like to ask: What could cause itching inside the male testicles?

It may be scrotal eczema. Currently, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) remains the primary treatment for scrotal eczema. Formulations containing dandelion, sophora root, forsythia fruit, cnidium fruit, and other commonly used dermatological herbs are specifically employed for both acute and chronic eczema, with scientifically grounded strategies to prevent recurrence. Patients should avoid wearing undergarments made of silk, wool, or synthetic fibers. Additionally, they should steer clear of potential triggering factors, such as washing or ironing with hot water, excessive use of soap, and inappropriate topical medications.
