Patient's question:
I've been feeling uncomfortable down there for a while, it's both painful and itchy, and my glans seems particularly red and a bit swollen. The odor is also quite unpleasant, and there's yellow discharge from my glans. Is this likely glans inflammation? I'm asking: What are the preventive measures for glans itching?Doctor's answer:
In this case, consider oral roxithromycin for balanoposthitis, while also using potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. It is recommended to frequently clean the foreskin and glans to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. If there is phimosis or a long foreskin, circumcision should be performed. The condition of glans itching tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek treatment immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
