Every man falls prey to an itchy member at one time or another Authentic Ken Crawley Jersey , inevitably finding themselves caught while scratching away when they thought they were in a private situation. Often that itchy member is caused by some male organ health condition, hopefully one that is fairly minor and basically benign. In that category is plasma cell balanitis, a manhood issue often accompanied by some degree of itchiness.

Plasma cell balanitis

Also known as Zoon balanitis (after the man who described it in the medical literature in 1952), plasma cell balanitis is usually considered as distinct from “regular” balanitis. The latter is an inflammation of the manhood, usually spread out over much of the prepuce of the male organ. Plasma cell balanitis differs in that it almost always presents in a much more localized form; rather than being spread out Authentic Ted Ginn Jr Jersey , it appears as a smaller, more concentrated area, looking like one plaque or rash. Sometimes the red plaque may also have smaller pin-sized dots of a different shade.

Plasma cell balanitis is much more common in men who are intact than in men who are cut. Although it can occur at any age, it is almost always found in middle-aged or older men. (A female variant can occur in women.)

Cause unclear

Although it was first described in 1952, not a lot is known about this condition. The cause Authentic Alex Okafor Jersey , for example, is not well-defined. The fact that it often occurs in intact men suggests some connection with the precupe, and indeed one of the primary accepted causes has to do with irritation to the area caused by secretions building up. (Urine sneaking under the prepuce and drying may also be partially to blame.) As the skin rubs back and forth, this creates an inflammatory irritation.

This would imply that the disorder occurs only in intact men who do not practice adequate male organ hygiene. However, it has been noted in some intact men with superior hygiene Authentic A.J. Klein Jersey , as well as in a much smaller number of cut men. In such cases, friction, heat or some form of external irritating factor may be to blame. Some doctors theorize that bacterial infection, or possibly even HPV, could be causes as well.

Benign

Although many men mistake plasma cell balanitis for a social disease Authentic Larry Warford Jersey , it is in fact a benign condition that is not sensually transmitted. It may cause a red, itchy member – and may in some cases be accompanied by some minor pain – but it is essentially harmless.

Treatment

In some cases, initiating and maintaining proper manhood hygiene may result in the disappearance of the balanitis. Topical steroids are often recommended, as are topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCIs). Photodynamic therapy (using tablets which are then exposed to special lights) has been used by some doctors. In many cases, circumcision may be recommended.

With treatment Authentic P.J. Williams Jersey , most cases resolve within 4-8 weeks, although an individual may find that the period is longer or shorter.

Plasma cell balanitis is considered a rare dermatological issue, but its exact rate is unknown; many doctors believe it is significantly underreported and that there may be more cases than is generally thought.

When plasma cell balanitis creates an itchy member situation, a man will want to take steps to help alleviate the itchiness. One way to help treat an itchy member is to regularly use a first class male organ health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin). Member skin that is well hydrated is less likely to itch Authentic Andrus Peat Jersey , so select a crème with both a high-end emollient (such as Shea butter) and a natural hydrator (such as vitamin E). Skin will be further strengthened if the crème contains a potent antioxidant, such as alpha lipoic acid, to fight the free radicals that can contribute to harmful oxidative stress. Professional athletes are paid to win, to entertain, to train and Authentic Sheldon Rankins Jersey , at times, to endure the brunt of much physical abuse because of their profession. However, several recent studies and news outlets have reported an increasingly disturbing number of athletes, both professional and non-professional, developing traumatic brain injuries (TBI) as related to concussions. These injuries may be going untreated and could leave an injured athlete with severe TBI side effects.

A study is being conducted by the Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy at the Boston University's School of Medicine to determine long-term side effects of continued head trauma including concussions. According to articles from The New York Times Authentic Trey Hendrickson Jersey , several National Football League (NFL) players have recently decided to leave their brains to the university for study of brain damage and the long-term effects of sports-related concussions. The article noted that the study has confirmed that at least five NFL players, who have recently died, have had damage to their brains that is usually only found in professional boxers.

The Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) in New Zealand is also attempting to reduce the likelihood of long-term TBI side effects for rugby players, which is an extremely popular pastime and has been deemed Australia's national sport. The association has even developed a continual research project on rugby players and their injuries, including traumatic brain injuries Authentic Alex Anzalone Jersey , known as the Rugby Injury and Performance Project (RIPP). The organization is trying to better treat concussions and side effects, because concussions in professional sports, are often overlooked and inadequately treated.

Recognizing Symptoms of Brain Injury

Both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Association of State Head Injury Administrators (NASHIA) urge family, friends and victims to watch for the follo.
