Patient's question:
I got a check-up last week and found balanitis. It seems to be getting worse now, with bleeding and fluid, and even blisters have appeared. Is the condition serious? Please ask: How can routine balanitis itching be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Considering it might be balanoposthitis, a type of lipid substance is secreted in the foreskin cavity. When the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, this lipid substance can accumulate as smegma, irritating the foreskin and glans to cause balanoposthitis. Taking roxithromycin, it is recommended to use potassium permanganate solution for cleaning simultaneously. It is advised to frequently clean the foreskin and glans to maintain a clean and dry foreskin cavity. In addition to treating glans itching, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet in daily life and always maintain a cheerful mood to enhance physical fitness and accelerate recovery.
