What should be paid attention to when there is itching of the foreskin?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I have balanitis, and I would like to consult about what to pay attention to with itchy foreskin.

Doctor's answer:

Men who contract mold can also experience symptoms such as odor, localized itching, and abnormal discharge again. It is recommended that you actively adopt treatment based on your own situation and pay attention to preventing fungal infections in daily life. For example:
1. Do not keep long nails;
2. Wash underwear and pants separately, especially if family members have conditions such as athlete's foot or toenail fungus;
3. Do not misuse antibiotics;
4. After washing clothes, pay attention to exposing them to sunlight or in a well-ventilated area;
5. Be mindful of preventing indirect transmission in public places.
