Patient's question:
I am 45 years old this year. Last week, it seems I had a slight fever, then felt tired and sleepy. When I came home that night, I noticed a red ring had appeared on the head of my penis, with some bleeding. The glans near the root of the foreskin was also congested. How can this be treated?Doctor's answer:
Based on your condition, it appears to be balanitis, which may be caused by excessive force during sexual activity. You can use a solution to clean the affected area and apply ointment to the irritated spot. It's important to limit sexual activity and maintain good personal hygiene. Regularly clean the external genital area with clean water, and be gentle during sexual activity.In addition to treatment, patients should maintain a regular schedule, protect themselves from cold and keep warm, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water to strengthen their constitution and prevent further illness.
