Patient's question:
I found something online that looks like balanitis, but I don't know what type of balanitis it is. It started last winter, and at first it was itchy with white discharge inside. After using some medication, it began to turn red and dry. How should I treat balanitis?Doctor's answer:
This situation where you reappear may be caused by mycoplasma infection. It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital's perinatal urology department to diagnose the type of inflammation and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to maintaining good hygiene and keeping the genital area clean. For patients with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it can affect your overall health. Therefore, patients should take oral medication promptly and pay more attention to self-care in daily life.
