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 foreskin edema?Doctor's answer:
Excessive sexual activity can not only interfere with the normal growth and development of the penis, leading to conditions such as a small penis, kidney deficiency, impotence, premature ejaculation, and acne, but it can also easily cause various urinary system diseases, such as urethritis and prostatitis. It may even result in a lack of sperm, making future conception difficult. It is recommended that you first get checked for urinary system diseases and, at the same time, completely abstain from sexual activity. Abstaining from sexual activity will help stabilize the aforementioned symptoms. In your daily life, you can engage in more activities, such as playing sports or reading books you dislike to help focus your attention. I hope my explanation is helpful to you. Conditions related to the foreskin tend to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals in a timely manner.
