Patient's question:
The glans is red, swollen, itchy, and has a bad odor. The scrotum is always damp, which is very uncomfortable. What are the nursing methods for male balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Pay attention, taking care of the foreskin is actually very simple, just need to use a washcloth. Remember, do not use soap and liquid, because the surface of the glans already has a layer of mucus and mucous membrane to protect it. However, using soap and liquid will destroy the mucous membrane, which may instead lead to urinary tract infections. For patients with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If not treated in time, it may affect health conditions. Therefore, patients should take medication according to symptoms and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting. Wish you a speedy recovery.
