The most typical symptoms of balanitis are redness, skin inflammation, swelling, itching, and the formation of small blisters on the glans. Balanitis can be definitively diagnosed through the following aspects:1. Acute Superficial Balanitis: Initially, the affected area becomes red, inflamed, and swollen, with a sensation of heat and itching in the glans.
