Patient's question:
I previously went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with penile edema. The doctor advised that it was not necessary to have it surgically removed. How is penile edema treated?Doctor's answer:
Your symptoms are likely due to a relatively narrow meatus or a significant infection, with numerous red spots on the glans. Therefore, the primary considerations are infection and edema caused by a small opening. It is recommended that you first use povidone-iodine for treatment, simply by cleaning your glans. Avoid sexual activity. You can also go to the hospital for surgical treatment. There are many treatment methods for male urogenital diseases, but since the patient's condition varies, the diagnostic methods used will also differ. Therefore, it is advised that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment upon noticing symptoms.
