Patient's question:
Recently, the glans has been red and swollen, with peeling and ulcers on the surface. It itches severely at night. What are the initial treatment methods for balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Suspected balanitis, it is recommended to thoroughly remove smegma, use Jieryin to clean the penis, and apply a compound clotrimazole cream for topical treatment. Pay attention to hygiene in the genital area. Avoid wearing tight, non-breathable pants and underwear. If the foreskin is too long, consider undergoing a minor circumcision surgery. Balanitis can be relieved, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to symptoms. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
