Patient's question:
A 26-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: If you want to have a circumcision and have itchy glans, what is the safest way to do it?Doctor's answer:
Penis head redness, itching, are mostly due to balanoposthitis, which may be related to your excessive prepuce. Further diagnosis is needed before treatment. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for follow-up, follow the doctor's advice for anti-inflammatory treatment, and consider a circumcision surgery to prevent recurrent inflammation. Lastly, patients should develop good daily habits, maintain a regular schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase regular exercise to enhance immunity and avoid recurrence of the condition.
