Patient's question:
Last week, I seemed to have a slight fever, then felt tired and sleepy. When I came home at night, I noticed a red ring had appeared on the head of my penis, with some bleeding. At the time, I went to the hospital, and the doctor said it was caused by balanitis. I would like to ask: How should balanitis be treated to heal?Doctor's answer:
Hello, for, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a smear test to check whether it is caused by a fungus or bacteria. If it is a fungus, it is suggested to apply topical antifungal medication such as Miconazole Nitrate. If it is bacterial, apply topical Erythromycin Cream and take oral antibiotics like Azithromycin for treatment. can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and maintain a light diet, avoiding foods, smoking, and drinking beer.
