Patient's question:
Last week, I seemed to have a slight fever, then felt tired and sleepy. When I got home, I noticed a red ring on my glans with some bleeding, so I went to the hospital. The doctor said it was caused by balanitis. Question: How to treat red and swollen glans in men?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is suspected that it may be balanoposthitis. The recurrence of balanoposthitis can be caused by the transmission of pathogens during sexual activity and phimosis. It is recommended that you and your sexual partner undergo a thorough examination to determine the specific cause, so that early treatment can be initiated. Additionally, it is advised to minimize or completely avoid sexual activity during the recovery period to prevent affecting the treatment outcomes for both parties. In addition to receiving proper medical treatment for the redness and swelling of the glans, patients should also pay attention to their diet, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a professional hospital for diagnosis, so that they can achieve good treatment results.
