Patient's question:
Over the past few weeks, several small red spots have reappeared on my glans, which are said to be balanitis. How should I treat balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis is the inflammation of the glans. This condition can be caused by various pathogens, local trauma, and other factors. Treatment recommendations include applying potassium permanganate solution externally and taking anti-inflammatory medications. In daily life, avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, pay attention to personal hygiene, and clean the external genitalia daily. If there is phimosis, circumcision may be necessary. In addition to timely treatment for phimosis, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a regular hospital for diagnosis to achieve good treatment results.
