Patient's question:
I usually have the habit of masturbation. Recently, I noticed some small bumps on my glans, and the symptoms seem to be similar to balanitis. Is it serious? Will it cause any problems? Please ask: What are the treatments for balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the problem you consulted about, you have balanitis. Balanitis is mainly caused by excessive foreskin, which easily creates a warm and humid environment, fostering bacteria and leading to balanoposthitis. It is recommended to pay attention to personal hygiene, wash with warm water, or use a high-manganese potassium permanganate solution for disinfection, or use a Jieryin dilution for disinfection. For severe cases, oral and topical antibiotics should be taken. It is recommended to undergo circumcision. The condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is necessary to seek medical treatment immediately at a professional and regular hospital, and treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Also, pay attention to a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
