Introduction

Introduction to scrotal inflammation Scrotal inflammation is often caused by pathological factors such as scrotal injury, extravasation of urine, diabetes, etc. Among them, the scrotal moist disease is the main cause of the disease, because most patients have scrotal wet, so the general cure of scrotal inflammation in the first to treat the scrotum wet. The pathogens are often Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pseudomonas aeruginosa), and Streptococcus anatipus. There are three types of erythema, papules, and white papules. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.003% Susceptible people: male Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: Infertility

Cause

Cause of scrotal inflammation

Occupational factors (45%):

People who are engaged in excessive physical labor may have wet parts of the genitals, sweaty skin of the scrotum, and friction in the underwear. White-collar workers who often sit and go to work should also pay attention to the ventilation and ventilation of the scrotum. It is not related to the tight jeans and the poorly breathable nylon pants.

Disease factors (50%):

Pathological factors such as scrotal injury, extravasation of urine, and diabetes can be caused. Among them, the scrotum is caused by various pathogens, and most patients with scrotal inflammation have symptoms of scrotal wetness.

Prevention

Scrotal inflammation prevention

1. Develop good habits to play an important role in the prevention and treatment of diseases. The underwear should be loose. Choose a cotton fabric with strong hygroscopicity and tight underwear and jeans without chemical fiber.

2. Improve the working environment, and do a good job of ventilation and cooling. Drivers driving long-distance buses should change their driving on time.

3. During the treatment period, hot water is not allowed to be washed, and no detergent containing soap and soap is needed to avoid allergic contact dermatitis.

4. No irritating drugs contain "pine" hormone drugs to prevent the growth of bacteria and increase the skin lesions.

5. Do a cold wet compress to relieve itching and reduce inflammation. The specific method is to take the clean water to soak the towel, squeeze it to a half dry, stack it into 4 layers, and apply it to the scrotum. Wash once every 3 minutes for several times. After itching and oozing stop, apply iodophor or iodine glycerol. Then itching again, until it is cured. It is forbidden to scratch, rub, or rub.

Complication

Scrotal inflammation complications Complications, infertility

Causes urinary tract reproductive system infection: The seminal vesicle gland is anatomically adjacent to the prostate, vas deferens, urethra, bladder, etc., and communicates with each other, so seminal vesiculitis is often secondary to infection of other organs of the urethra reproductive system.

Injury to sperm, causing male infertility: 90% of semen is seminal vesicle secretion, in which fructose can be used as a source of power for sperm; when the seminal vesicle is inflamed, these secretions are reduced, which can affect the vitality of the sperm; the amount of semen is insufficient, and the vagina cannot be filled. The semen pool can also cause infertility.

Symptom

Symptoms of scrotal inflammation Common symptoms Scrotal itching scrotum moist odor odor inside the femoral close to the yin... Scrotal skin scaling scaly skin hypertrophy

First, scrotal dermatitis: the cause may be related to the lack of B vitamins in the diet. The symptoms are skin flushing, exudation, peeling, and even blisters, pain and itching.

Second, scrotal eczema: mainly caused by sweat, pollution and stimulation. It is characterized by redness and swelling of the skin, blisters, exudation, crusting, and even thickening and roughness.

Third, scrotal hysteria: is a skin disease caused by mold infection, often associated with skin snoring in other parts of the patient. The skin of the scrotum is flushed, with papules or blisters, and then the dandruff, the lesions often have ring-shaped lesions, and the itch is severe.

4. Riboflavin deficiency scrotum inflammation: more common in men who eat white rice, white flour or long-term diarrhea, constipation, loss of appetite or picky eaters, the main manifestations are: the scrotum is reddish at the beginning, and later on both sides of the scrotum Light red patches appear, with scales on it, and soon there may be multiple flat papules of the size of soybeans, with varying degrees of itching, often with angular cheilitis and glossitis.

Five, scrotum simple moss: that is, scrotal site neurodermatitis. It is characterized by itchy skin, thickening and thickening, but it is not permeate, and the course of disease is often long and it is difficult to heal.

Examine

Scrotal inflammation check

Laboratory-assisted examinations include routine blood tests, often with elevated white blood cells. Blood routine examination showed increased white blood cells and increased neutrophils. Urine routine examination, visible hematuria and white blood cells, acute pathogenic bacteria can be found in the urine, if necessary, can be used for syphilis serum test to exclude syphilis. Susceptibility testing is required for poor drug treatment.

Diagnosis

Scrotal inflammation diagnosis

diagnosis

The diagnosis of scrotal inflammation includes clinical diagnosis, pathogenic diagnosis, and laboratory diagnosis. The pathogenic diagnosis is an important part of helping to identify infectious scrotum and non-infectious scrotal inflammation and guiding the selection and treatment of antibiotics.

Laboratory examination: The total number of white blood cells in the blood increased, and bacterial growth was observed in the local pus culture.

Chinese medicine diagnosis method

1. Mastering characteristic lesions are mostly irregular, polygonal or flat round papules are merged into pieces, showing normal skin color or light brown. The skin becomes thicker and thicker, the skin groove is deeper, and the skin ridge is uplifted. Easy to form moss, is an important feature of this disease.

2. The early skin lesions of the disease-causing disease are mainly papules, or erythema, itching, red tongue, greasy moss, pulse number, etc., mostly rheumatic fever and stagnation of the skin, is an empirical. If the disease is not cured for a long time, or repeated episodes, it will evolve into blood deficiency and dryness. The skin lesions are mossy, dry, hypertrophic, desquamation, like the skin of a cow's collar, with pale red tongue and weak pulse. Mostly they are false certificates or mixed documents.

3. Understand the cause of the disease This disease is often induced or aggravated by mental factors, irritating food or clothing friction, scratching, etc.

Western medicine differential diagnosis

1. Chronic scrotal eczema: often with acute blistering period, even if it is chronic in the beginning, blisters are common in histopathology, the damage is significantly infiltrated and thickened, often covered with scales and suede, and the moss-like changes are not prominent. The scrotal inflammation has no blister in clinical and histopathological conditions, and the lesions are mostly irregular, polygonal or flat rounded papules, which are merged into pieces, and the mossy appearance becomes obvious. In terms of the cause of the disease, the former is mainly allergic, and the latter is mainly mental disorder.

2. Scrapie: It is just itching at the beginning of the disease, without any primary rash, with burning, insect crawling, ants walking and other feelings. The affected area often has secondary damage such as scratches, smashing, exudation, and blood stasis. The mossy boundary is unclear. Scrotal dermatitis is caused by local itching, and the polygonal flat papules merge into a piece, and the moss-like changes are clearly defined with normal skin.

3. Lichen planus: It is a polygonal rash or a triangular flat papule with a depression in the center, which is purple or dark red, with waxy luster and strip damage. The buccal mucosa often has a gray-white flat polygonal rash. Scrotal dermatitis does not have these manifestations.
