Patient's question:
Doctor, my glans has been itchy recently, sometimes it's also red and swollen. After examination, I was diagnosed with balanitis and balanoposthitis. How do I treat this condition?Doctor's answer:
Pharyngitis is caused by a Candida albicans infection. Treatment suggestions include applying potassium permanganate solution for cleaning, as well as using miconazole cream or clotrimazole ointment. It is recommended to avoid spicy and irritating foods as much as possible and pay attention to personal and sexual hygiene. The foreskin can recover, but the treatment process is usually slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to use medications that match the symptoms during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid irritating foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
