Patient's question:
I feel very uncomfortable in my private area, and that feeling is indescribable. It affects my work and life very much, and it's very troublesome. Is it a serious illness if the foreskin itches, turns red, and itches?Doctor's answer:
It is likely that you have developed balanitis, which is causing discomfort symptoms. These symptoms are primarily caused by bacteria and result from unclean sexual practices. You can take some anti-inflammatory medication to clear heat and expel fire, or apply a topical ointment for treatment, such as erythromycin ointment or hydrocortisone ointment. Pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid cross-infection by using Wujianjie for cleaning. In addition to treating the itching of the foreskin, the patient should also focus on proper care, such as maintaining a balanced diet and keeping a positive mood. At the same time, the patient should pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis to achieve good treatment results.
