Some Reasons for an Itchy Male Organ and How to Fix It
by John Dugan OwnerItches can be annoying. An itchy male organ, on the other hand,
well, that can be painful, embarrassing, and a pathway to infection. Since
scratching won’t take the itch away forever, a little research can. Here are 5
reasons a man may be experiencing male organ itching, and how he can stop the
scratching ASAP.
Itchy Male Organ
Reason #1: Contact Dermatitis
Contact dermatitis is a
fancy name for an allergic reaction. This happens when the skin comes into
contact with something it’s allergic to. This will cause a super-itchy, red,
bumpy rash. It may even ooze a clear or yellowish fluid. It can be caused by
new laundry detergents, body lotions, or even latex protection. Don’t be
surprised if other body parts also itch.
Fix it: Pause
and think about any recent changes that have been made. Once you identify the
culprit, stop using it, stat! Now, simply wash and thoroughly rinse the skin.
The rash will go away in a week or two. Take Benadryl to calm discomfort and
reduce inflammation.

Reason #2: Fungal Infections
Hold the mushrooms! If a man
experiences male organ itching and a rash, it could be a fungus. A yeast
infection will create shiny areas on the member and some white discharge and a
red, angry rash. Other fungi, jock itch, for example, has a circular appearance
with raised ridges.
Fix it: Once
you and/or a doctor determine what type of fungus is causing it, treat
accordingly. Most fungal infections can be soothed with a topical antifungal
cream. Be sure to keep the area clean and very dry, since fungus loves
moisture.

Reason #3: Pubic Lice
You may be housing some
unwanted tenants. Symptoms of pubic lice also include irritation, redness, and
tiny specks. It’s a parasite often called crabs. If the specks are white or
yellow, it’s eggs. If they are tan or grayish in hue, it is the lice
themselves. If you have a magnifying glass handy and want to take a closer
look, you’ll see that they resemble itty bitty crabs, hence the nickname. You
can contract pubic lice from intimate contact or using things like blankets or
sharing clothing with someone who has them.
Fix it: Get
to the doctor as soon as possible for a diagnosis. If it is pubic lice, you’ll
get a special shampoo or lotion that will kill the lice.

Reason #4: Sensual Organ Warts
Sensual organ warts are a
common symptom of the human papillomavirus (HPV). Sensual organ warts are
usually soft to the touch, flesh-colored, and may look like a cauliflower.
Fix it: Again,
get to the doctor for a diagnosis. Treatment could include medication or
freezing the warts off. Unfortunately, this cannot be cured and can be spread
to others even if a wart is not present, so be sure to disclose your status
before intimate contact.

Reason #5: Herpes
For some men, male organ
itching can be the first symptom of this partner-transmitted infection, which
is caused by the herpes virus. The itching will lead to burning, and then a
blister or cluster of blisters will pop up.
Fix it: After
a diagnosis from your doctor, it’s likely your doctor will prescribe antiviral
medication to quell the outbreak and stop others from happening in the future.
Herpes is a chronic condition and cannot be cured entirely. Use caution and
latex protection when sensually active and disclose your status in advance of
intimate contact. Herpes can be spread even when you don’t have a noticeable
outbreak.

safe intimacy and having a thorough daily hygiene routine, men can apply a
