What should I do if I have balanitis and have undergone circumcision recently?

Patient's question:

Previously, I suffered from balanitis and underwent a circumcision surgery on the 28th of last month. It has been almost a month since the surgery, and none of the titanium nails have fallen out. I also noticed that the glans and coronal sulcus are peeling. What should I do about the balanitis after almost a month of circumcision surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Since the glans penis transitions from a moist environment to a dry one, it is very normal to shed a layer of skin flakes. As for the titanium nails, theoretically, they should have peeled off by now. Even if they haven't, it's not a major issue. You can go to a hospital to have them removed. If it's convenient, you can come here. The condition of balanitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it's important to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it's necessary to restrict sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
