Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed mild redness and swelling of the penis foreskin and glans. The foreskin is significantly swollen and intensely itchy. I would like to ask, what are the potential harms of prolonged foreskin swelling?Doctor's answer:
So now you need to understand that your balanitis is due to the fact that you have undergone a circumcision surgery. If it is the case I mentioned above, this balanitis is within the normal range. Generally, after this surgery, it takes more than a month for the balanitis to gradually subside. The condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to immediately seek medical treatment in a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Also, pay attention to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
