Patient's question:
I am a 32-year-old male who has recently been experiencing discomfort. Gradually, the discomfort has worsened. How can I determine if the balanitis is improving?Doctor's answer:
Your issue is that you feel swelling of the foreskin with local congestion. This situation is highly likely to be caused by balanitis. You can apply ointment externally, and pay attention to temporarily avoiding sexual activity and intercourse. Also, reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods, and frequently clean the area. It will gradually improve.Then, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, and regulate physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to maintain a positive mood, eat more light, soft, and easily digestible foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
