Patient's question:
I've been feeling uncomfortable down there for a while, it's both painful and itchy, and my glans seems particularly red and a bit swollen. The smell is also quite unpleasant, and there are yellowish discharge from my glans. Is this likely balanitis? I'd like to ask: What are the causes of balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Intermittent infection can cause significant harm to perinatal health. Dry balanoposthitis is a more severe form of balanitis, damaging the physical structure of the foreskin and glans, affecting sexual life and aesthetics, and is also a common cause of premature ejaculation. Balanitis is a common reproductive infection in men. For patients with balanitis, it is crucial not to take it lightly and to seek timely treatment. There are several causes of balanitis, and patients must identify the root cause to receive targeted treatment. Avoid using medication blindly, as it may increase the body's stress.
