Is the local whitening of the foreskin balanitis?

Patient's question:

A 34-year-old male, who had a slight fever last week, then felt tired and sleepy. When he got home at night, he noticed a red ring on the glans and some bleeding. He went to the hospital at the time, and the doctor said it was caused by balanitis. Please ask: Is the white change in the foreskin balanoposthitis?

Doctor's answer:

As you described, it seems like balanoposthitis. Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to test for Candida to check for a Candida infection. Treatment should be adjusted based on the circumstances. Pay attention to local hygiene to prevent mechanical friction, avoid high-risk sexual contact, and avoid irritating foods. Additionally, in daily life, patients should maintain a balanced intake of nutrients, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen the body, and keep a positive mood to enhance physical fitness and accelerate the recovery process.
