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 slightly swollen. The smell is also quite unpleasant, and there are yellowish secretions on my glans. Could this be glans inflammation? I'd like to ask: How can I treat glans itching effectively?Doctor's answer:
The main cause of is balanoposthitis. Due to inflammation caused by balanoposthitis or fungal infections, or sometimes due to a latex allergy, there are other conditions as well. For example, excessive foreskin can lead to chronic irritation from urine and smegma, which may cause balanoposthitis, resulting in swelling, congestion, and erosion of the foreskin mucosa. This can lead to repeated cross-infections and even reoccurrence of phimosis. There are several reasons that can cause, such as excessive foreskin, balanitis, or unsafe sexual practices. It is recommended that patients with seek professional and regular medical examination and treatment. Only by identifying the root cause can the condition be fully cured.
