Patient's question:
There is white-like substance coming out from the foreskin, with itching and some redness. I have used Ba'an wash liquid for over a month and have used four bottles, but the condition has not improved significantly. How should balanitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
If diagnosed with balanitis, use disinfectant to wipe and sterilize, or soak in a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution. If it is a Candida infection, apply clotrimazole ointment externally for treatment. If there is phimosis, it is recommended to undergo surgical circumcision after infection control. Balanitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication.For male patients, it is important to seek professional and regular medical treatment promptly. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, maintain a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
