Patient's question:
I have had balanitis for two years, and it keeps recurring. I have taken some medication and applied some ointments, but they only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. What should my doctor do to treat it?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is considered a urinary system inflammation without a definitive diagnosis of bacterial type, so targeted medication is not effective. It is recommended to seek professional urological examination and diagnosis to identify the root cause and receive appropriate treatment. If you have any questions, you can call the director's phone number for detailed consultation. For patients with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
