Patient's question:
It has been a while, and I've noticed that my glans is particularly dry, with some flaky stuff falling off, like dandruff. I also feel itchy and painful. Is this balanitis? Please ask: How should one treat and recover from red and swollen glans?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description of your condition, you may currently have balanitis caused by a urinary tract infection. It is recommended that you take oral levofloxacin and other anti-inflammatory medications, and try washing with Furin or a one-thousandth potassium permanganate solution to see if it improves the condition. The condition of redness and swelling of the glans is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and regular hospitals promptly, and treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
