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, of varying sizes, and they are getting more and more. This situation doesn't seem normal, does it? Could it be balanitis? Please ask: What are the effective treatments for balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Fungal infections generally require the consideration of using some antifungal medications for treatment. You can first use soda water or other solutions to rinse the external genital area. After rinsing, you may consider applying some miconazole nitrate. Pay attention to temporarily avoiding sexual activity. If your sexual partner also has a fungal infection, it is necessary to consider treating it together. The condition of balanitis is prone to recurring, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to immediately go to a professional and regular hospital for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Also, pay attention to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
