Patient's question:
When taking a shower at night, I noticed a white ring around the head of my penis, and the head of my penis seemed a bit wrinkled and red. Recently, I also found that I wasn't urinating smoothly. After checking at the hospital, they said it was balanitis. Please ask: How should I treat the red and swollen foreskin?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, I believe the condition you are dealing with, such as phimosis and inflammation, is often caused by local infections.!Based on your situation, I suggest you drink more water, get more rest, maintain good local hygiene, and enhance local care. Use a sufficient and standardized dose of antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment. The condition of phimosis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, for male patients, it is crucial to seek professional and reputable medical attention immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Also, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
