Patient's question:
I feel very uncomfortable in my private area, and that feeling cannot be described. It affects my work and life very much, and it's very troublesome. What should I do if I have balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis is a common clinical condition, but treatment requires a thorough examination to determine the underlying cause. Red rashes in the foreskin may be caused by conditions such as pearly papules due to phimosis or balanitis. Similar symptoms may also occur. Unprotected sexual intercourse cannot be ruled out as a cause of sexually transmitted diseases. However, if such a condition is suspected, a thorough examination is necessary. If left untreated, the inflammation may spread upward, leading to urethritis or prostatitis. For your health, it is recommended to visit our reproductive infection specialty department for a detailed examination and diagnosis. After diagnosis, appropriate treatment can be administered. There are many treatment methods for balanitis, but the specific approach depends on the individual's condition.
