What causes redness, swelling, and itching of the glans?

Patient's question:

I spoke about my a few days ago, and the redness, swelling, and itching were rejected by your opinion. I used your Cephalexin and Nystatin, and it has started to show some effect. However, in the past few days, the area of the broken skin is still red and swollen, and the area is still expanding. At the same time, redness and swelling have also started to appear in other places. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

Penile balanitis is mainly caused by bacterial infection, phimosis or excessive prepuce, dirty sexual contact, drug irritation or allergy, etc. The medication you are currently using is suitable, and you can still continue the treatment. Wishing you a speedy recovery. For patients with red and swollen glans, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If not treated promptly, it may affect your physical condition. Therefore, patients should take medication according to symptoms in a timely manner, and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to prevent prolonged sitting.
