Patient's question:
For a while now, my testicles have been slightly swollen and aching. Recently, they've started to hurt more, especially when touched, and it feels particularly intense. It seems like the other side is also slightly swollen. I'm very worried. Please ask: What are the most effective treatments for penile itching?Doctor's answer:
This condition should be balanitis. You can soak it in a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution and apply an anti-inflammatory ointment. Additionally, apart from allergic balanitis and fungal balanitis, it is best to visit a dermatology or urology department for a thorough examination to determine the type of inflammation. Confirm the diagnosis before starting treatment. Pay attention to hygiene and avoid spicy foods. The condition of balanitis itching tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to seek medical treatment immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Also, pay attention to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood. Finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
