How can you effectively prevent balanitis?

Patient's question:

I am a 35-year-old male who has been sick for a long time, but it wasn't until a checkup that I discovered this condition. Could you please tell me: How can I effectively prevent balanitis from getting better?

Doctor's answer:

Frequently clean the foreskin and glans, always keep the foreskin cavity clean and dry. Pay attention to good hygiene habits in daily life. Circumcision and other treatments are effective preventive measures for those with phimosis or paraphimosis. If the condition is detected, gently move the foreskin at the affected area and soak it with potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. Appropriately use antibiotics, and it usually heals within a few days. If it is more severe, effective treatment should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.
