Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for many years, and we have not used any contraception, but we have never been able to get pregnant. After checking the hospital, we found out. Please ask what are the causes of foreskin itching?Doctor's answer:
Considering the possibility of balanitis, its clinical manifestations are often seen as local itching, redness, erosion, and even ulcers, with recurring discharge and odor. In severe cases, it may lead to fever, chills, systemic symptoms, or even penile swelling and pain. It is recommended to seek medical attention for a thorough examination and treatment. Pay attention to the hygiene of the external genitalia. If there is phimosis or excessive prepuce, surgical treatment should be considered early to prevent unsafe sexual practices. Wear loose clothing and avoid spicy and irritating foods in your diet. In addition to symptomatic treatment for preputial itching, patients should also pay attention to nursing aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
