Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with balanitis. I don't know much about this disease, so I'd like to consult. How should I treat balanitis?Doctor's answer:
There is balanitis, which may be related to your negligence in personal hygiene. It is recommended that you improve your examination. It is suggested that you take oral metronidazole and cefotaxime sodium. In daily life, you can soak in warm water with potassium permanganate tablets. Avoid consuming extremely cold and spicy foods. I hope my explanation is helpful to you. Balanitis can be relieved, but the treatment cycle is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, it is recommended to develop good living habits and maintain a proper diet. I hope male patients can recover quickly!
