Patient's question:
Penis head redness, swelling, itching, and a bad odor, moist groin area - is there a problem? Is it balanitis? What are the symptoms and dangers of balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Penile swelling is usually caused by excessive foreskin in men leading to balanitis, and prolonged foreskin overgrowth not only causes symptoms like penile swelling but can also lead to pus discharge, bleeding, and premature ejaculation over time. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment. The condition of the foreskin tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals based on examination results. Additionally, it is advisable to limit sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
