How should patients with penile edema be treated?

Patient's question:

First, my glans started appearing with some red spots, but there was no discomfort. However, recently I noticed that blisters have also appeared on it, varying in size and increasing in number. This situation doesn't seem normal, does it? Could it be balanitis? Please ask: How should patients with foreskin edema be treated?

Doctor's answer:

If within two days after surgery, there is such edema, it is also a normal phenomenon. Of course, if it persists for several more days, it indicates that the inflammation has not subsided yet, and intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment is still needed. Pay attention to hygiene, change dressings frequently, and wear loose clothing. The condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals in a timely manner, and treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Also, maintain a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
