Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed mild redness and swelling of the penis foreskin and glans, significant foreskin edema and severe itching. What are the symptoms of foreskin edema and how is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Consider it to be balanitis. You can use potassium permanganate and warm water to mix it into a light pink solution, then apply it. Wash it off once in the morning and once in the evening. Additionally, you can use Boleson from MSD for 3-5 days to start seeing effects. If there is no improvement, it is essential to immediately go to the hospital for a thorough examination.The foreskin can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
