Patient's question:
First, let's start with my glans only showing some red spots, and there was no discomfort. However, recently I noticed that there were also blisters appearing on it, of different sizes, and they are getting more and more. This doesn't seem normal, does it? Could it be balanitis? Please ask: How to detect redness and swelling of the foreskin?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it may be balanitis. The gap between the glans and foreskin, as well as the coronal sulcus, cannot always keep the glans dry due to residual urine and secretions. This can easily lead to the accumulation of dirt and increase the risk of infection. In this case, oral roxithromycin should be taken, while also using potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. It is recommended to frequently clean the foreskin and glans to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. For individuals with foreskin issues, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and symptomatic treatment, and maintain regular sexual activity and avoid prolonged sitting in daily life. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
