Under normal circumstances, what treatment is used for redness and swelling of the foreskin?

Patient's question:

My husband has recently been experiencing discomfort in his lower body and was diagnosed with an illness after a hospital examination. Seeing him often in pain makes me very worried. Could you please ask the doctor what treatment is typically used for red and swollen foreskin?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your condition, it is considered that you have phimosis edema. This situation is generally caused by inflammation or excessive sexual activity. Therefore, it is recommended to use cold compresses with warm water. If the condition does not stabilize for a long time, it is important to promptly go to the hospital for a thorough examination to confirm if there is inflammation and to use anti-inflammatory medications in a timely manner. Phimosis conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication.
For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to restrict sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
