How should the treatment for balanitis be effective?

Patient's question:

Itching of the glans, dysuria, went for a check-up and was told it was balanitis. How should the treatment be effective for balanitis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are red rashes on the glans, which are generally considered to be eczema, papules, balanitis, or genital warts. Among these, inflammation caused by phimosis or poor hygiene is relatively common. If you have a history of unprotected sex, you should consider genital warts. Additionally, if it is balanitis, it is important to identify the specific pathogen causing the inflammation to provide targeted treatment. For example, if the balanitis is caused by a yeast infection, it cannot be treated simply with conventional anti-inflammatory medications.
It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for standardized and thorough examination to determine the specific condition, and then decide on the appropriate treatment method accordingly.
