What causes balanitis

Patient's question:

My friend has a symptom of itchy glans, it seems quite serious. Hello, why do you get a severe itchy glans?

Doctor's answer:

Phimosis, caused by excessively rough sexual intercourse, can lead to varying degrees of foreskin corrosion. Due to the high level of excitement during sexual activity and the minor nature of the injuries, they may not be immediately noticeable. However, the foreskin's wounds are highly susceptible to bacterial contamination, which can result in balanitis. Young men often have more active secretion from the sebaceous glands of the foreskin. If they do not pay attention to regularly cleaning the external genitalia or fail to retract the foreskin during cleaning, the secretions of the foreskin's sebaceous glands can accumulate under the foreskin. If not promptly and thoroughly removed, this can easily lead to balanitis. During treatment, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a balanced diet, hoping that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
