Patient's question:
I recently had some redness on my penis foreskin and glans, with many small rashes. I only went to the hospital for a thorough examination because of white discharge. The doctor said it was balanoposthitis. After treatment, it has healed. I would like to consult on how to prevent balanoposthitis. What are the methods to prevent balanoposthitis?Doctor's answer:
1. Frequently clean the foreskin and glans, always keeping the foreskin cavity clean and dry. Avoid dirty sexual contact and maintain personal hygiene.2. Pay attention to local hygiene, clean the glans and foreskin daily. If the foreskin is too long, seek timely treatment. Circumcision may be necessary if cleaning the foreskin is difficult.
3. Maintain a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and ensure adequate rest. Do not overexert yourself.
