What are the causes of a red and swollen glans and what medications are used?

Patient's question:

What are the reasons for the redness and swelling of the glans? This condition has appeared for several days now. How should I handle it? Thank you, doctor.

Doctor's answer:

Your condition, where you are experiencing red rashes and blood spots again, should be balanitis. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a smear test to check whether it is caused by fungi or bacteria. Then, treatment can be administered based on the specific situation. If it is fungal, it is advised to apply topical antifungal medication such as Terbinafine. If it is bacterial, apply topical erythromycin cream and take oral antibiotics like Azithromycin. In addition to medication for treating the redness and swelling of the glans, patients also need to pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in more outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to ensure a good therapeutic effect.
