Patient's question:
I got a check-up last week 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. Is the condition getting serious?Please ask: How can I treat the issue of balanitis itching?
Doctor's answer:
Itchy glans may be considered as balanitis. Apply a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution locally for cleaning and maintain dryness at all times. Under the guidance of a doctor, take antibiotics for treatment. Pay attention to genital hygiene, maintain dryness, take frequent baths, and change underwear frequently. Itchy glans can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to symptoms. Additionally, patients should follow a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
