How to treat red and swollen glans

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been feeling a lot of pain in my testicles, and this week I've also had a fever. Usually, I feel cold, and when I take a bath, I notice that my testicles seem to contain a lot of liquid. Please ask: How do you treat a swollen and red penis head?

Doctor's answer:

It is balanitis. Balanitis refers to the inflammation of the glans penis. This condition can be caused by various pathogens, local irritation, and other factors. It is recommended to take oral anti-inflammatory medication and use a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for local washing. The redness and swelling of the glans can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to use medications that address the symptoms during treatment. Additionally, it is advised to maintain a healthy lifestyle and proper diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover quickly!
