What medicine should be taken for balanitis?

Patient's question:

There are small red spots on the glans with white discharge. There is mild pain in the urethra during urination. It has been happening for 2 days. What medicine should be taken for balanoposthitis?

Doctor's answer:

Balanoposthitis is caused by local tissue inflammation. In this case, we can treat it by using potassium permanganate solution for cleaning, combined with oral administration of heat-clearing and detoxifying oral liquids and cefixime capsules. It is important to maintain local cleanliness and follow a light diet for patients with balanoposthitis. Timely treatment can reduce the recurrence of the condition, while delayed treatment may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and appropriate treatment, and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
