Patient's question:
I previously took Ganoderma Capsules and Loratadine Tablets orally for balanitis, and applied Fu Yan Ning Acetate Triamcinolone Ekon Cream externally. There was a break in treatment for a period, and I have now been using it continuously for about a week. Most of the red spots have subsided, but upon close inspection, there are still small bumps on both sides of the glans. What medication is good for balanitis?Doctor's answer:
It could be balanoposthitis, so you should go to the hospital to see a doctor for an in-person diagnosis. You can get tested for Candida to check for a Candida infection and treat accordingly, avoiding high-risk sexual contact. Balanitis tends to recur, so long-term medication treatment is often necessary. For male patients, it's important to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital immediately and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Additionally, avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
