Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with balanitis. I don't know much about this disease, so I'd like to consult. How is the best way to treat balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Gonococcal urethritis, treatment suggestions include applying potassium permanganate solution externally and taking levofloxacin and azithromycin orally. If there is phimosis, it is necessary to have circumcision performed as soon as possible. Wash the external genitalia daily, and pay attention to washing before and after sexual activity. For patients with gonococcal urethritis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
