Patient's question:
I had a physical examination and found that I have balanitis. It seems to be getting worse recently, with some bleeding and discharge, and it looks like there are also blisters? Please ask: How should balanitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
It can be applied locally with ointment, twice a day. First, wash the area before applying the medication. Generally, it takes about a week to heal. It has excellent antifungal effects, with a treatment duration of 2-4 weeks. For treating fungal infections of the reproductive organs, both partners should be treated, and sexual activity should be avoided during the treatment period. Men should also frequently clean between their legs to maintain local hygiene and prevent irritation. Balanitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek professional and reputable medical attention immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Additionally, it is necessary to limit sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
