Patient's question:
I have been experiencing persistent itching in my genital area recently. I have applied some medication and have been cleaning it daily, but it hasn't helped. Now, my girlfriend and I are planning to get married, and I want to give my other half the perfect me, but I really don't know what to do.Doctor's answer:
It's definitely not balanoposthitis that causes the itching at the base of the penis. Based on your situation, the itching at the base of the penis is most likely related to eczema. You could consider applying triamcinolone acetonide and econazole cream externally to see if it helps. The condition of balanoposthitis tends to recur frequently, requiring long-term oral medication. Additionally, for male patients, it's important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital as soon as possible. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination.
