How to treat balanitis quickly?

Patient's question:

Last week, I seemed to have a slight fever, then felt tired and sleepy. When I came home that night, I noticed a red ring on the head of my penis, with some bleeding. At the time, I went to the hospital, and the doctor said it was caused by balanitis. I would like to ask: How can I treat balanitis quickly?

Doctor's answer:

This situation is primarily considered to be caused by balanitis. It is important to pay attention to personal hygiene and change underwear frequently. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. It is recommended to apply Hydrocortisone cream or Mupirocin ointment for treatment. In daily life, wear loose clothing as balanitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is crucial to seek professional and regular medical treatment immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, maintain a proper diet and avoid sexual activity. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
