What are the effective ways to treat redness and swelling of the glans penis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I've been experiencing redness and swelling on my glans recently, along with some itching and a bad odor. What are the treatment methods for redness and swelling of the glans?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, you can use potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. Pay attention to personal hygiene, change your underwear and pants frequently, and avoid spicy foods. If the recurrence is caused by excessive foreskin, it is best to undergo circumcision, which can prevent the recurrence of balanitis.
Maintain a light diet and avoid spicy foods. Rest well and avoid overexertion. Avoid sexual intercourse and unprotected sex. Keeping yourself clean can help alleviate the redness and swelling of the glans, but the treatment process is usually slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used according to the symptoms during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to develop good lifestyle habits and eat a balanced diet during treatment. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
