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: What is the best way to handle penile foreskin edema?Doctor's answer:
The subcutaneous connective tissue of the skin on the foreskin and scrotum is relatively loose. Under conditions such as being struck, inflammatory stimulation, surgery, and various types of wounds, the foreskin may become swollen. This condition requires targeted treatment based on the cause. If it is infectious, timely antibiotic treatment and appropriate topical disinfectants should be used to sterilize. The foreskin can heal, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications must be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer. It is hoped that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
