Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have phimosis and unsatisfactory sexual life. I would like to learn more. How should I treat redness, swelling, and a shiny appearance of the foreskin?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the described condition, the foreskin is red, swollen, shiny, and has white precipitates, with a local odor. This situation may be caused by the irritation of penile glans secretions leading to inflammatory redness and swelling of the local foreskin. It is recommended to retract the foreskin daily, clean the glans and coronal sulcus of secretions, and maintain the local area as clean and dry as possible. Clean the secretions promptly if any are present. The local odor will gradually and completely disappear. Regarding this condition, patients should not only receive necessary treatment but also pay attention to their daily care. Maintaining a good lifestyle and routine is essential to recover from the illness as quickly as possible.
