Patient's question:
Over the past few days, after recovering from hemorrhoids, I suddenly noticed white sticky discharge in the foreskin groove accompanied by itching. On the third day, I discovered pinhead-sized red papules on the glans. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The main symptoms are abnormal secretions from the external genitalia, red rashes, and itching. It could be caused by conditions such as balanitis or balanoposthitis, and there is no direct connection with your previous hemorrhoids. You can use potassium permanganate sitz baths. The foreskin can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and the patient should also maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
