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? Will it cause any problems? Please advise: How can balanitis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If it occurs again recently, it is acute inflammation, then you can rinse with a permanganate solution of 1/50,000 daily, take levofloxacin orally, and it should be fine. If it doesn't improve for a long time and recurs repeatedly, it is often related to phimosis itself. If you have phimosis, you should go to the hospital for a circumcision, and it may naturally improve. During the flare-up period, avoid sexual activity and drinking beer. Phimosis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recur after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan.
