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 I treat redness and swelling of the foreskin?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in this case, consider balanoposthitis. Take roxithromycin orally, and at the same time, use 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 excessive foreskin, circumcision should be performed. The condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical attention immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Also, pay attention to a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
