What is the cause of long-term vaginal itching?

For many people, genital itching is a common symptom, but if it is more serious, people generally pay more attention to it. In fact, many men also experience symptoms of genital itching. In fact, most of them are caused by vaginal infection. Of course, part of it is due to many other reasons. Therefore, when we encounter specific problems, we must analyze them specifically. If the condition is serious, you must seek medical attention.

The itching of men's genitals may be caused by bacterial infection due to not paying attention to the hygiene of the genitals in life. It may also be caused by diseases such as eczema or jock itch. The incidence rate is generally higher in summer. This is mainly because the genitals often sweat in summer, which causes the growth of genital bacteria. Therefore, men should pay more attention to the cleanliness of the genitals and try to keep them dry.

Tinea cruris refers to a skin disease caused by fungal infection on the inner thigh, perineum, and buttocks. The fungus of tinea cruris can be transmitted through underwear, bath towels, etc., and can also be transmitted through sexual intercourse, so tinea cruris is also listed as a sexually transmitted disease. But we must not think that tinea cruris is definitely transmitted through sexual intercourse. Clinically, more than 80% of tinea cruris is transmitted through non-sexual intercourse.

It is mostly caused by contact with patients with ringworm, or through cats, dogs, etc., or indirectly through clothing and utensils, or by first having tinea pedis and then spreading the infection through scratching. In summer, the climate is hot and humid, and the human body sweats a lot, especially in the thighs. If you don't take a shower in time, or wear tight underwear and a lot of sweat has no time to evaporate, you are likely to get this disease. In addition, patients with diabetes, excessive leucorrhea, etc., as well as those who take large amounts of broad-spectrum antibiotics or corticosteroids orally or topically for a long time, are also prone to tinea cruris. Judging from the incidence rate, it is mainly young people, with more males than females. This disease often occurs in summer, and humid or hot climate often makes the condition worse, while it will be relieved or cured in winter.

Scrotitis, changes such as erythema, dryness, desquamation, papules and crusts appear on the scrotum, accompanied by itching; tinea cruris caused by fungi affects the scrotum and causes itching; neurodermatitis and eczema in the scrotal area, etc. In addition, the genitals are hot, sweaty, humid, and breathable. The scrotal skin is soaked in sweat and rubbed by underwear, causing itching. As long as you have no history of sexual promiscuity, genital ulcers or growths, urethral pus, etc., you don't have to worry about getting a sexually transmitted disease. Keeping the scrotum dry for a long time is the key to prevention.

The above is a detailed introduction to many reasons that cause male genital itching. I believe that through the above explanation, everyone must have some understanding of this symptom. For many men, if they experience severe symptoms of genital itching, they must seek medical attention promptly and never delay the treatment because of embarrassment.
