Patient's question:
I have had balanitis for more than a month. It has improved somewhat in recent weeks. However, I now notice small red spots on my glans, though they are not always very noticeable. But they don't itch. After taking a bath, my glans becomes very red, and it gradually improves after a while. What could be the situation? What should I do? I have phimosis, but I bathe daily?Doctor's answer:
The basic principle of treating balanitis is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. Generally, it involves both internal and external treatment. For Candida-induced balanitis, treatments commonly used include griseofulvin or itraconazole. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with balanitis should also pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive mood greatly assists in the complete recovery from the disease. I hope the above answer can help you, thank you.
