Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have balanitis, and I would like to consult about the early care methods for balanitis.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, balanitis is mainly caused by insufficient penis hygiene or irritation leading to inflammation of the glans and foreskin. Antimicrobial treatment is necessary. It is recommended to first pay attention to penis hygiene, using soap or other methods to clean the penis, maintaining cleanliness. Then, apply topical anti-inflammatory ointments such as erythromycin ointment externally, while taking oral cephalosporin-class anti-inflammatory drugs for antimicrobial treatment to recover. In addition to timely treatment for balanitis, patients also need to pay attention to care aspects, such as a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to obtain good therapeutic effects.
