Patient's question:
When taking a shower at night, I noticed a white ring around the head of my penis, and the head of my penis seemed a bit wrinkled and red. I also found that I wasn't urinating very smoothly. After checking at the hospital, they said it was balanitis. Question: What should I do if I get balanitis and itching?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the situation mentioned is relatively simple. It is difficult to speculate on the cause, so you need to provide detailed information or have the patient undergo a thorough examination at the hospital to clarify it. It is recommended that you first ensure proper local hygiene and disinfection. Use a 1:2000 potassium permanganate solution for soaking treatment. Additionally, during the treatment for penile itching, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery from penile itching.
