Psoriasis is the most common autoimmune disease in the U.S., according to the National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF); around 2.2 % of the population, or roughly 1 in 50 people, are affected by the condition; and yes, psoriasis can occur in the pelvic region, resulting in a sore, itchy, red male organ. In addition to the treatment options for psoriasis explored below, maintaining proper male organ care can keep the skin as healthy as possible, eliminating potentially embarrassing conditions below the belt. What is psoriasis? Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that affects both men and women. Unfortunately, men are more likely to be afflicted with plaque-type psoriasis in the pelvic area then women are. Luckily, psoriasis is non-contagious and therefore cannot be transmitted to an intimate partner. Psoriasis is not passed from one partner to another, though an under the sheets workout may occasionally be linked to a flair up of the condition. Using latex protection during intimacy may help protect the affected area, reducing direct friction and possibly preventing further physical injury to the area. Unfortunately, psoriasis on the male organ can be a painful condition that may interfere with a man’s intimate life, which is why it is important to seek treatment for the condition as soon as possible. What does psoriasis look like? Psoriasis presents with varying degrees of severity ranging from small, dry skin patches that are very mild and may even go unnoticed, to thick, red scaly patches of skin and areas of plaque. It can appear anywhere on the body but is commonly found on the elbows, knees and scalp. Many people are embarrassed by the appearance, particularly if it appears in the nether regions, and may avoid treatment or even fail to disclose it to a partner. While there is no cure, psoriasis often has good treatment outcomes, thus, treatment should not be avoided. What are treatment options of psoriasis on the male organ? Individuals who suspect they have psoriasis of the male organ should seek medical attention from a urologist or dermatologist to ensure it is not a more serious condition. There are many courses of treatment that a doc may recommend including: Topical Anti-inflammatories - Over the counter anti-inflammatory medications have been found to be very effective in treating manhood psoriasis. The medication reduces inflammation and red male organ symptoms. For more severe cases of psoriasis, a doctor may recommend prescription strength medicated ointments. Alternative Topical Medications- Various other ointments may be applied topically, which do not include hormone-based anti-inflammatories as an active ingredient. Options may include salicylic acid, an ingredient which causes the outer, scaly layer of the skin to shed. Biologics- Biologic medications are given by injection. They target specific parts of the immune system and block T cells which contribute to psoriasis. Some injections are given intramuscularly and can be self-administered, while others are intravenous and are given in the doctor’s office. Ultraviolet Treatment- UV treatment, or light therapy, may be used to treat psoriasis of the male organ. Such treatment is a long-standing type of therapy that has been used for psoriasis for decades; often, the patient must go to the doctor’s office for the treatment. Moisturizers and Bath Solutions- Some doctors may recommend bathing in Epsom salts or Dead Sea salts as a way to reduce inflammation of the area. Using a moisturizer to keep the skin well hydrated may also decrease redness and itching of the area. Combining the two may provide an excellent at-home remedy to reduce the day-to-day symptoms of male organ psoriasis. Applying a male organ vitamin formula (most professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil), immediately after a bath and while the skin is still damp, can help lock in moisture and rejuvenate the skin of the male organ. An all-natural crème that is specially formulated for the male organ will also provide needed nutrients to reduce skin irritation, improve circulation, and enhance sensitivity of the area.
