Patient's question:
The glans is red and swollen, with peeling and ulcers on the surface. I don't know if it's inflammation. What should I pay attention to when it comes to male balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Consider it may be caused by balanitis. You can use potassium permanganate solution for cleaning and apply erythromycin for treatment. Pay attention to personal hygiene, avoid spicy foods and sexual activity. If it is severe, you can take Amoxicillin or Azithromycin under the guidance of a doctor for anti-inflammatory treatment. The redness and swelling of the glans can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor, use medication appropriately, and maintain a light diet, avoiding stimulating foods, smoking, and drinking beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
