Patient's question:
Hello! I noticed patches on my glans with different colors, and there's a ring of white substance around the edge of the glans that can't be washed off. Is this a sign of balanitis? If it is balanitis, could you please tell me how to diagnose itchy glans?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, considering the possibility of a urinary tract infection, it is recommended that you can take Amoxicillin or Qingre Tonglin Pian for treatment. It is advised that for a urinary tract infection, you should pay attention to drinking more water, eating less spicy and irritating food, and keeping the external genital area clean. You can also apply warm water to rinse the external genital area. The condition of itchy glans is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to seek medical treatment at a professional and reputable hospital immediately, and treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
