Patient's question:
Here, the glans is inflamed. What's going on? It's still inflamed in winter?Doctor's answer:
Inflammation of the foreskin is caused by excessive foreskin, which leads to balanitis. If the foreskin is not inflamed, cleaning the inner surface of the foreskin daily with clean water can effectively prevent the recurrence of balanitis. However, if balanitis has already occurred, relying solely on prevention will not be effective. It is recommended that you visit a formal urological hospital for a thorough examination to identify the specific pathogen. After confirming the pathogen, treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
