Patient's question:
There are small, chickenpox-like bumps outside the glans, sometimes accompanied by itching. It's been going on for a while. How can I treat balanitis without going to the hospital?Doctor's answer:
Most recurrences are caused by infectious inflammation, so the first thing to pay attention to is hygiene. In such cases, it is recommended that you visit a hospital for a thorough examination to determine how the infection occurred and what type of inflammation it is. Then, receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay attention to hygiene, wash the area frequently, and eat more fruits and vegetables. Balanitis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's plan, use medications appropriately, maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
