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 formed 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 can I treat balanitis to recover quickly?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, if there is no recurrence of itching and odor, and other discomfort symptoms, it won't have any impact. For balanitis, it is best to pay attention to personal hygiene and change underwear frequently. It is recommended to use potassium permanganate for cleaning and apply mupirocin ointment for treatment. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Balanitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and also develop good lifestyle habits and proper diet during the treatment. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
