Patient's question:
Will it happen again on the foreskin? Will it still be accompanied by symptoms such as bumps around the anus and obvious tenderness? Can balanitis occur on the foreskin?Doctor's answer:
This is also possible. It is commonly seen in cases of balanitis with phimosis or paraphimosis. The treatment for balanitis can involve soaking in a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution and applying an anti-inflammatory ointment. For allergic balanitis, oral antihistamines and topical corticosteroid ointments should be used. If phimosis or swollen foreskin prevents the ability to move and soak, there may be poor drainage. If the inflammation does not subside after general treatment, it is important to prevent overexertion in daily life and pay attention to personal hygiene.
