Patient's question:

Alright, here is the translation, following your instructions:
Okay, I feel fine, no discomfort at all. But I'm still not (not reassured). I'd like to ask, what are the symptoms of (balanitis)? We always use protection during sexual activity, so even if I did have this condition, it wouldn't show up with these symptoms just three days later, right? Is it curable?

Doctor's answer:

Phimosis balanitis can easily lead to prostatitis, orchitis, epididymitis, and inflammation of the vas deferens and other organs. If not treated promptly and effectively, they can spread and infect each other, causing significant harm to perinatal health. The choice of medication depends on the specific type of infection. After the infection subsides, circumcising an overly long foreskin is the fundamental solution to the problem. It tends to recur, requiring long-term medication treatment. For male patients, it is crucial to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking and maintain good personal hygiene.
