Patient's question:
A 41-year-old male, who has been experiencing this for a while, has noticed that his glans is particularly dry, with some flaky substance falling off, similar to dandruff. He also feels itchy and painful. Is this balanitis? Please ask: Is the swelling of the prepuce severe?Doctor's answer:
Your condition is caused by excessive sexual activity. If your foreskin swelling is severe, it is recommended that you seek medical treatment promptly. There is a possibility of phimosis without excision, so it is advised to avoid further sexual activity. You can apply anti-inflammatory ointment topically and, if necessary, take penicillin orally in coordination. Additionally, sexual activity can lead to impotence and premature ejaculation, so it is recommended that you try to break this unhealthy habit.
