Patient's question:
The glans is red and swollen, with peeling and ulcers on the surface. I don't know if it's inflammation. Could you please tell me what the symptoms of glans inflammation are?Doctor's answer:
Trichomoniasis balanitis: It can lead to papules and erythema, which gradually expand with clear margins. Small vesicles the size of needles are visible on the erythema, eventually forming erosions. It is important to frequently clean the foreskin and glans, maintaining cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. If there is phimosis or a long foreskin, circumcision should be performed. Balanitis tends to recur easily, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is crucial to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals, considering treatment based on examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
