Patient's question:
First, my glans started appearing with some red spots, but there was no discomfort. However, recently I noticed that blisters of varying sizes have also appeared, and they are getting more and more. This doesn't seem normal, does it? Could it be balanitis? Please ask: What are the causes of foreskin edema?Doctor's answer:
Edema of the foreskin is generally caused by inflammatory stimulation or an allergic reaction. If an allergic reaction is triggered by taking certain medications, it can lead to swelling in the foreskin area. Swelling of the foreskin can also occur after foreskin surgery.What should be done about foreskin edema? The cause of foreskin edema needs to be carefully examined and diagnosed before it can be confirmed. It is recommended to go to a formal urology hospital for examination and diagnosis of the underlying cause, followed by targeted treatment.
Foreskin edema can be relieved, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, it is advised to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
