Patient's question:
I noticed that my glans seems to have some blisters, red and swollen. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was balanitis. I didn't do much, yet how did I get this condition? Please ask: Which hospital is better for treating red and swollen glans?Doctor's answer:
In your case, you can use potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. Pay attention to personal hygiene, change your underwear and pants frequently, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. If the recurrence is caused by excessive foreskin, it is better to undergo circumcision, which can prevent the occurrence of balanitis.Maintain a light diet and avoid consuming spicy and irritating foods. Rest well and avoid overexertion. Refrain from masturbation and unclean sexual practices. Keeping yourself clean, the redness and swelling of the glans can be recovered. However, the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication must be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should follow a light diet, avoid foods, not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
