Patient's question:
I usually have the habit of masturbation. Recently, I noticed some small bumps on my glans, and the symptoms seem to be similar to balanitis. Is it serious? Could there be something wrong? Please ask: How to treat balanitis well?Doctor's answer:
Considering the recurring symptoms caused by the irritation of balanitis, it may be advisable to actively use an external wash with potassium permanganate at a concentration of 1:5000. During the treatment period, sexual intercourse should be avoided, and if necessary, oral anti-inflammatory medication can be used in conjunction. Balanitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals promptly. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
