What disease is it when the glans turns black?

Patient's question:

I am a 50-year-old woman who suddenly felt unwell and, after a check-up, was diagnosed with this disease. Please ask: What is the cause of a blackened glans?

Doctor's answer:

The condition of the glans turning black is often initially considered to be due to poor blood circulation in the penis or the accumulation of substances caused by improper hygiene. In addition to potential medical causes, a more common reason is balanitis (inflammation of the glans and foreskin). It is recommended that you visit a hospital for examination and follow the treatment guidance provided by the doctor.
Then, the patient should maintain a light diet, keep a positive mood, avoid staying up late or going to bed late, and ensure sufficient sleep time. Additionally, it is important to maintain a habit of exercise. In daily life, it is also necessary to avoid extreme hunger or overeating, as well as consuming large amounts of food in a short period.
