What Chinese herbs are good for treating dampness in the scrotum?

In traditional Chinese medicine, the treatment of scrotal dampness emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment according to the specific causes, with appropriate selection of herbal medicines. 1. Damp-heat Descending Syndrome: Ba Zheng San (Eight-Ingredient Powder for Rectifying Heat) with modifications is recommended. Commonly used herbs include Akebia Stem (Mutong), Plantago Seed (Cheqianzi), Polygonum Aviculare (Bianxu), Rhubarb (Dahuang), etc., aiming to clear heat and resolve dampness. 2. Phlegm and Blood Stasis Obstruction Syndrome: Er Chen Tang (Two-Ingredient Decoction for Phlegm) combined with Shao Fu Zhu Yu Tang (Lesser Abdomen Expelling Stasis Decoction) with modifications are preferable choices. Commonly used herbs include Tangerine Peel (Chenpi), Pinellia (Banxia), Poria (Fuling), etc., to resolve phlegm and activate blood circulation. 3. Kidney Deficiency with Damp-Heat Syndrome: Ji Sheng Shen Qi Wan (Preserve Life Kidney Qi Pills) with modifications are more suitable, including herbs such as Prepared Rehmannia Root (Shudihuang), Chinese Yam (Shanyao), Poria (Fuling), etc., to nourish the kidneys and clear heat. 4. Others: Proprietary medicines such as Long Dan Xie Gan Wan (Dragon胆Liver Bitter Pill) and Si Miao Wan (Four Marvels Pill) also have effects of clearing heat and resolving dampness. In addition to pharmacological treatment, patients should adjust their lifestyle, avoid high-temperature environments, quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption, reduce intake of spicy and irritating foods, and wear loose and breathable clothing. If symptoms persist, timely medical consultation is recommended.
