Patient's question:
I have some whitehead-like particles on my glans, and it's very red and wrinkled. Lately, when I urinate, there's always white discharge coming out, and it's itchy. I went to see a doctor and they said it's glans inflammation. Please ask: what should I do after discovering the redness and swelling of the glans?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The above situation is often caused by conditions such as balanitis. Common causes of balanitis include transmission through unclean sexual activity, phimosis, penetration of pathogenic microorganisms, and poor local hygiene. It is recommended to pay attention to personal hygiene, especially local cleanliness, maintain a regular lifestyle, eat a light diet, drink plenty of water, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Follow the doctor's advice and cooperate with treatment based on the examination results. Wishing you good health! Balanitis with redness and swelling can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is advised to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
