Patient's question:
Hello! I noticed some patches on my glans, and the colors are different. There's also a white substance around the edge of my glans that won't come off with washing. Is this a sign of balanitis? If it is balanitis, could you please tell me how to take care of a swollen and red glans for better recovery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the symptoms you described, it should be considered as balanitis. Balanitis manifests as redness and swelling of the foreskin, burning pain, and relief during urination. There may be purulent discharge from the foreskin orifice. If the foreskin is moved, it can be seen that the inner foreskin and glans are congested, swollen, etc. Your condition is closely related to phimosis. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment and use medication appropriately. Additionally, during the treatment period, it is recommended to maintain a healthy lifestyle and diet. We hope that the male patient can recover as soon as possible!
