Patient's question:
First, my glans started appearing with some red spots, but there was no discomfort. However, recently I noticed that blisters of varying sizes have also appeared, and they are getting more and more. This situation doesn't seem normal, does it? Could it be balanitis? Please ask: What causes redness and swelling of the glans?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the redness and swelling of the glans may be more likely caused by external trauma or inflammation of the glans. It is recommended to have a follow-up visit to the surgeon for a thorough examination to clarify the condition. If the inflammation is caused by excessive foreskin or poor hygiene, the cause should be addressed promptly. The condition of redness and swelling of the glans tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
