Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing pain in the head of my penis. Today, after taking off my pants and looking, I noticed that my foreskin is slightly swollen—it looks quite puffy. At times, I also feel numbness in the glans area, as if there's a lack of sensation. I want to know how I should treat this condition. What precautions should I take during recovery?Doctor's answer:
Recurring swelling and pain in the foreskin is primarily considered to be caused by factors such as injury, inflammation of the foreskin, and other reasons. For addressing this condition, if it is due to injury, the wound should be disinfected and dressed to prevent reinfection. If it is caused by inflammatory infection, targeted antibiotics can be used for treatment based on the pathogen causing the infection. It is important to maintain cleanliness and hygiene at all times, and avoid sexual activity during treatment. Men suffering from urological conditions should not only seek immediate treatment but also pay attention to maintaining deep sleep in daily life. Sufficient deep sleep is essential to help you recover quickly from the illness. I hope the above information can assist you. Thank you!
