How is balanitis best treated

Patient's question:

I've been feeling uncomfortable down there for a while. It's both painful and itchy, and my glans seems particularly red and a bit swollen. The smell is especially unpleasant, and there's yellow discharge from my glans. Is this glans inflammation? Please ask: How is glans inflammation best treated?

Doctor's answer:

Phimosis is often caused by the irritation of smegma. During daily hygiene, retract the foreskin to expose the glans, soak it in a low-concentration potassium permanganate solution, take some anti-inflammatory levofloxacin, pay attention to personal hygiene, avoid spicy foods, and it will gradually improve. Phimosis can be relieved, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and during the treatment period, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and proper diet. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
