Patient's question:
I got a physical check-up last week and found balanitis. It seems to be getting worse recently, with some bleeding and discharge, and it looks like there are also blisters. Is the condition getting serious?Please ask: How can you determine if you have balanitis itching?
Doctor's answer:
This condition should be balanitis. You can soak it in a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution and apply an anti-inflammatory ointment. Additionally, apart from allergic balanitis and fungal balanitis, it is better to go to the dermatology department or urology department for a follow-up examination to determine the specific type of inflammation. Confirm the diagnosis before starting treatment. Pay attention to hygiene and avoid spicy foods. For patients with balanitis itching, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect your health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. I wish you a speedy recovery.
