Patient's question:
The glans is swollen and exudes fluid, and it also rubs against the underwear when walking, which is very painful. What should I do about the swollen and exuding glans?Doctor's answer:
The redness and swelling of the glans are caused by the expansion and fibrosis of blood vessels within the glans, leading to redness and swelling. This can be diagnosed by a doctor upon careful examination. In most cases, it is caused by balanitis triggered by unsafe sexual intercourse. Treatment typically involves using Jieryin for cleaning, followed by medication like Biclotym and levofloxacin for intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment, which will gradually improve. The redness and swelling of the glans can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to use medications that are appropriate for the symptoms during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to develop good lifestyle habits and maintain a balanced diet during the treatment period.
