Scrotum - #16996
For the past few weeks, I’ve been having discomfort in my scrotum, and I don’t know what’s causing it. It started as a mild irritation, like a slight itching, but now there’s occasional pain, especially when I’m sitting for too long or after physical activity. I’ve also noticed that my scrotum sometimes feels warmer than usual, and there’s a slight redness that comes and goes. I don’t remember any injury, but I do spend a lot of time sitting because of my job. I also wear tight-fitting jeans often, and I’m wondering if that’s affecting my scrotum health in any way. A few days ago, I noticed some mild swelling on one side of my scrotum, and it got me really worried. There’s no extreme pain, but it’s an annoying discomfort that doesn’t seem to completely go away. I read somewhere that Ayurveda talks about heat imbalance in the body affecting the reproductive organs. Could excessive Pitta dosha be causing these symptoms in my scrotum? Are there Ayurvedic remedies that help with swelling, irritation, or discomfort in this area? I’ve tried applying coconut oil for relief, but I don’t know if that’s the right approach. Another thing I’ve been wondering is if diet plays a role in scrotum health. Are there foods that could be making this worse, and should I avoid spicy foods or hot drinks? Also, does Ayurveda recommend any herbal treatments for reducing discomfort in the scrotum? I’d really appreciate any guidance on natural ways to heal and prevent further issues. Should I change my lifestyle, or are there specific Ayurvedic treatments I should try?
