Patient's question:
It's been a while, and I've noticed that my glans is particularly dry, with some flaky stuff falling off, like dandruff. It also feels itchy and painful. Is this glans inflammation? Please ask: What does balanitis look like?Doctor's answer:
What is the reason for the swelling of your foreskin? Is it due to the foreskin surgery? If the swelling is caused by the surgery, it usually takes about 3 months to fully recover to its normal state. No special treatment is needed unless the swelling is severe, in which case local cold compresses or infrared light therapy can be applied. For foreskin patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect your overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
