Patient's question:
I got tested for my health last week and found balanitis. It seems to be getting worse recently, with some bleeding and discharge, and it looks like there are also blisters. Is the condition getting serious? Please ask: How should balanitis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Gonococcal urethritis is usually characterized by red spots on the glans, along with symptoms like itching. It is commonly caused by excessive foreskin. If you have gonococcal urethritis, it is recommended to use potassium permanganate for cleaning and apply topical triamcinolone acetonide and econazole cream. Pay attention to hygiene, change your underwear frequently, and consider undergoing circumcision for better results.
