Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing redness, swelling, pain, itching, and a burning sensation in the glans, along with peeling. After examination, it was diagnosed as balanitis. I would like to know what medication is most effective for treating balanitis. Will the use of effective medication lead to recurrence?Doctor's answer:
The main causes of balanitis include phimosis, paraphimosis, sexual intercourse, trauma, transmission, and unclean sexual contact. It is recommended that you also receive a comprehensive evaluation and careful observation. Pay attention to local hygiene, avoid unclean sexual contact, and if there is phimosis or paraphimosis, surgical treatment should be performed as soon as possible. For patients with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If it is not treated promptly, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication in a timely manner and avoid overexertion in daily life, paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
