Patient's question:
My husband has recently been experiencing discomfort in his lower abdomen and was diagnosed with an illness after a hospital examination. Seeing him in constant pain, I am very worried. Could you please ask the doctor how penile inflammation is generally treated?Doctor's answer:
The surface of the glans is not smooth, but this does not necessarily prove that the glans is inflamed. Most cases of glans inflammation exhibit obvious abnormalities, such as local redness, papules, itching, pain, or discharge. If you currently feel any abnormalities in your glans, you can first temporarily abstain from sexual activity. At the same time, use an antiseptic wash daily to carefully clean the glans and the inner side of the foreskin, maintaining good hygiene. Change your underwear frequently and opt for loose, breathable fabrics. Glans inflammation can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene!
