Patient's question:
Continuous high fever has occurred, and I am particularly afraid of cold. At first, I thought it was just a cold, but then I noticed that my testicles were becoming more and more painful, and when I touched them, it felt like there was water inside. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with orchitis. Please ask: Is balanitis contraindicated?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis is the inflammation of the glans. This condition can be caused by various pathogens, local irritation, and other factors. Treatment recommendations include applying potassium permanganate solution externally, taking amoxicillin and levofloxacin orally. It is advisable to avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, pay attention to personal hygiene, and clean the external genitalia daily. If phimosis is present, circumcision may be necessary. Phimosis can be resolved, but the treatment process is usually lengthy and prone to recurrence. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, proper medication, and avoiding prolonged sitting or riding are essential. Additionally, patients should pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
