Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Cao Zhiqiang
Common management measures for treating a moist scrotum:
1. Keep the area clean and dry: Take a shower daily and thoroughly clean the genital area. Gently dry with a clean, dry towel. Avoid wearing tight pants or synthetic underwear; choose cotton or other breathable materials to help reduce sweat accumulation.
2. Adjust lifestyle: Reduce consumption of spicy foods and alcohol, as these may increase body heat and perspiration. Maintain healthy habits, such as regular exercise and adequate sleep, which can also help reduce excessive sweating.
3. Medication: Select appropriate medications based on the underlying cause. If caused by chronic prostatitis, antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin hydrochloride tablets may be used under a doctor's guidance. If caused by scrotal eczema, antihistamines or topical medications such as calamine lotion may be applied.
4. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): Scrotal moisture is often due to damp-heat descending to the lower body; therefore, Chinese herbal medicines or patent medicines that clear heat and remove dampness, such as Longdan Xiegan Wan, may be taken.
