Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have a condition called balanitis. I would like to consult about how to treat this condition.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description and presentation, it is considered that you may have recurrent balanitis. Generally, balanitis is often caused by phimosis. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital's urology department or andrology department to check if you have phimosis or paraphimosis. It is suggested that you undergo circumcision, but during this season, you must pay attention to postoperative infection and care. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and refrain from smoking and alcohol. Once the phimosis issue is resolved, it is expected that your balanitis will disappear. There are many treatment methods for balanitis, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the diagnostic methods used also vary. Therefore, patients need to be examined and diagnosed promptly to receive targeted treatment.
