Patient's question:
Recently, my glans has been very uncomfortable and sore, but I'm not sure if it's caused by balanitis. I'm quite hygienic, taking a bath every two or three days, and there's no unpleasant odor there. It's still quite clean. What are some good treatments for balanitis? What are some good treatments for balanitis?Doctor's answer:
Simple Treatment for Balanitis – Let Me ExplainThis condition you have might be balanitis. The infectious type is often caused by sexual activity, transmitting Candida albicans, trichomonas, chlamydia, mycoplasma, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, or other bacteria. Non-infectious factors are usually due to excessive foreskin, insufficient hygiene, or the accumulation of unclean substances between the foreskin and glans, known as smegma, which can irritate the local foreskin and mucosa, leading to inflammation. I recommend you visit a hospital for a thorough examination and timely treatment.
