Patient's question:
I've been feeling uncomfortable downstairs for this period, it's both painful and itchy, and it seems like my glans is particularly red and a bit swollen. The smell is especially unpleasant, and there are yellowish secretions on my glans. Is this glans inflammation? I ask: How is it most effective to treat glans itching?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis is often caused by infections from bacteria such as molds, chlamydia, mycoplasma, herpes, etc., or sometimes it is due to excessive foreskin. Poor personal hygiene can lead to infections of the glans penis by bacteria, molds, or other pathogens. Chemical irritation to the skin of the glans penis, such as from soaps or detergents, can also trigger recurrent infections. Men should be cautious. The condition of glans itching tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, male patients should seek immediate medical attention at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity are important. Lastly, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
