How should balanitis be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

Recently, I noticed mild redness and swelling of the penis foreskin and glans. The foreskin is significantly swollen and intensely itchy. Please check if it's balanitis. Is the red spots on the glans a symptom of foreskin inflammation? There's a little urine left after urination, which is a bit itchy.

Doctor's answer:

Based on the situation and symptoms you described, the main cause of the recurrence of the aforementioned condition is still due to the influence of chronic inflammation. For the current situation, it is recommended that you take anti-inflammatory medication promptly for treatment and pay close attention to careful observation to improve the current condition and symptoms. The condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to seek medical treatment at a professional and regular hospital immediately, and treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
