Patient's question:
Today while I was taking a bath, I suddenly noticed small bumps on my foreskin. When I touched them, they didn't hurt, but they looked quite awkward. Hello, I have a slightly red, rice-sized bump on my outer foreskin. What could be the cause?Doctor's answer:
Did you notice that the prepuce is too long and there are a few small bumps on it? It might be a sebaceous cyst or it could be folliculitis of the prepuce. You can take oral antibiotics for treatment, wash the external genitalia daily to maintain cleanliness, and keep them dry at all times. Alternatively, you can undergo circumcision to remove the excess prepuce, allowing the glans to be fully exposed, which will prevent further inflammation.For patients, if the condition of the male reproductive system is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered, and appropriate medication should be used. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of the condition. Additionally, patients need to maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition. I hope the answers to these questions can help everyone. Thank you.
