Doctor, my glans has been itchy recently, and sometimes it's also swollen and red. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with balanitis. What should I do if my glans becomes swollen and red?Doctor's answer:
In this case, consider balanoposthitis. It is recommended to take roxithromycin orally, while also using the topical product Furikang externally. Alternate use for 1-2 weeks is suggested. It is recommended to frequently clean the foreskin and glans to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. Redness and swelling of the glans can be recovered, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's treatment is essential during the course, proper medication should be used. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
