Patient's question:
When urinating, I always feel uncomfortable, and I'm particularly worried about my child's health. Some people say that surgery can be done, but I'm afraid of the risks. Could you please tell me what are the initial symptoms of phimosis?Doctor's answer:
This should be a symptom caused by an infection of the glans inflammation. In severe cases, it may present with shallow small ulcers or erosion, with purulent discharge. This condition primarily requires anti-inflammatory treatment, with erythromycin and tetracycline being the drugs of choice. For trichomoniasis-induced balanoposthitis, metronidazole is the drug of choice. For Candida-induced balanoposthitis, itraconazole or griseofulvin is commonly used. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If not treated promptly, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
