Patient's question:
Last week, I seemed to have a slight fever, then felt tired and sleepy. When I came home that night, I noticed a red ring on the head of my penis, with some bleeding. At the time, I went to the hospital, and the doctor said it was caused by balanitis. Please ask: How can balanitis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Excuse me, I'd like to ask if there are any other discomfort symptoms now, how long has it been? Balanitis is related to poor hygiene habits and long foreskin. It is recommended to visit the urology department of the hospital for follow-up treatment in a timely manner. If the diagnosis indicates balanitis, it is suggested to treat the condition with a diluted potassium permanganate solution. The condition of balanitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to immediately go to a professional and regular hospital for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Also, pay attention to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
