Patient's question:
I have some whitehead-like particles on my glans, and they are particularly red and rough. Recently, when I urinate, there is always a white discharge coming out, and it is extremely itchy. After seeing a doctor, they said it is glans inflammation. Please ask: What should I do to treat and improve it after getting glans inflammation?Doctor's answer:
To treat balanoposthitis, it is first important to understand the cause of the condition. Clinically, balanoposthitis is primarily caused by excessive foreskin, poor personal hygiene, failure to retract the foreskin to clean the inner foreskin and glans, or infections in sexual partners that can affect you. If balanoposthitis occurs, both partners often need to be treated to achieve effective results. The best approach to treating balanoposthitis is to first conduct a bacterial culture to identify the causative agent and then use targeted medication for optimal treatment outcomes. Balanoposthitis tends to recur easily, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, it is important to abstain from sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
