I would like to ask how to deal with recurrent infant external genital inflammation?

Patient's question:

The child has developed many red rashes around the private area. This has happened before, and it has flared up again now. The child cannot stop scratching the itch. Today, I noticed that many areas have become red and swollen, and some of the skin has even blistered. How can we deal with the recurring episodes of balanitis in children?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you clarify this. For infant vulvitis, it is mainly caused by bacterial infections. It's important to pay attention to hygiene. He should change his underwear every day, and the underwear should be exposed to sunlight. Every night, he should wash the vulva. It's best to use boiled water for washing. You can take him to the hospital for a detailed examination of the secretions. After the examination, symptomatic treatment can be provided. Vulvitis patients can use dietary therapy as supplementary treatment while receiving professional treatment in life.
