Patient's question:
Because of the balanitis caused by excessive foreskin, it's just that the surface of the glans is not smooth, without pain or other symptoms. The hospital conducted a thorough examination and said it was balanoposthitis, requiring surgical treatment. How should balanoposthitis be treated to heal?Doctor's answer:
Suggestion: Balanoposthitis refers to the inflammation of the inner foreskin and glans penis. A lipoidal substance normally secreted in the foreskin cavity can accumulate as smegma in cases of phimosis or excessive foreskin, irritating the foreskin and glans to cause balanoposthitis. Symptoms include edema, redness, exudation, and erosion. Secondary infections may lead to purulent discharge, easily forming ulcers, accompanied by pain. Maintain a light diet and avoid spicy foods.
