Doctor's answer:

First, balanitis is an infectious condition of the foreskin and glans caused by bacteria or other microorganisms. These microorganisms are always present in the foreskin. If a condom is not worn during sexual intercourse, it is very easy to transmit to close relatives and easily cause cross-infection, leading to repeated local infections. What are the main causes of balanitis? After reading the above content, I believe everyone has understood. When a man's glans reappears with symptoms such as redness, scaling, itching, and pain, male friends should be more vigilant. When discomfort symptoms reappear, they should seek medical attention early.
