Is the white and smelly glans penis indicative of balanitis?

Patient's question:

The foreskin has turned white and smells, and the prepuce is slightly red. What's going on? I am very particular about the cleanliness of my private parts, but recently when I was washing, I noticed this phenomenon, which has never happened before. Now, when I urinate, there is a recurring odor. How should I solve this situation?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, it should be a phenomenon caused by or other inflammatory stimuli. Do not worry too much. This may be due to the disruption of the body's immune function caused by excessive attention to the cleanliness of the private parts in your daily life. It may also be due to infection from others during sexual activity. Further careful examination is needed to confirm which type of inflammation is present, and then targeted medication can be used. For severe cases of male diseases, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and treat it according to the doctor's advice. Do not switch medications at will, otherwise the effect may be counterproductive. The above suggestions are for reference only.
