Patient's question:
The glans seems to have some blisters, red and swollen. Is this balanitis? I haven't done anything, but how did I get this disease? Please ask: What are the causes of balanitis?Doctor's answer:
It could be balanitis, which is caused by excessive foreskin or unclean sexual activity. In clinical diagnosis, infectious balanitis is more common. Infectious balanitis is often transmitted through unclean masturbation, leading to infections with Candida, trichomonas, chlamydia, mycoplasma, gonococcal bacteria, or other bacteria. It is recommended to seek medical treatment early and undergo circumcision to prevent the occurrence of balanitis and the development of bumps on the foreskin. Wishing you good health. For patients with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce the recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
