Patient's question:
Recently, when using the restroom, I've been feeling very uncomfortable with my glans. Then I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said I have balanitis. So I want to ask how to treat balanitis? What kind of medication is needed?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis is caused by inflammation and infection, and is associated with various factors such as unclean sexual activity, poor hygiene during sex, lack of attention to cleanliness in daily life, phimosis, or paraphimosis. Oral quinolone or cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as medications like metronidazole, are effective in treating it. It is important to enhance self-care, change unhealthy lifestyle and dietary habits, and maintain consistent cleanliness of the genital area. Phimosis is a condition that is difficult to recover from. Patients should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism, as this can boost their confidence in combating the condition and believe that recovery is possible.
