Patient's question:
I got a check-up last week and found that I have 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 is balanitis treated?
Doctor's answer:
For, it is recommended to take oral roxithromycin while also using potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. Pay close attention to personal hygiene. It is advised to frequently clean the foreskin and glans to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. If there is phimosis or excessive foreskin, circumcision should be performed. Balanitis can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and also follow a light diet, avoiding spicy foods, smoking, and drinking beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
