Patient's question:
I've been feeling uncomfortable down there for a while. It's both painful and itchy, and my glans seems particularly red and a bit swollen. The odor is especially unpleasant, and there are yellowish secretions on my glans. Could this be glans inflammation? I'd like to ask: How can effective treatment be found for glans itching?Doctor's answer:
