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? Is there anything wrong? Please ask: What are the initial symptoms of redness and swelling of the glans?Doctor's answer:
According to your condition, you have balanitis, which is generally related to poor hygiene and phimosis. Treatment suggestions include applying potassium permanganate solution externally, taking amoxicillin and levofloxacin orally, and if phimosis is present, undergoing circumcision at an early stage. The condition of redness and swelling of the glans is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, for male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals promptly. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Furthermore, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
