Doctor's answer:

Balanoposthitis is a common external genital disease in men. It is divided into balanitis and posthitis. Because they often occur simultaneously, it is referred to as balanoposthitis. It can be infectious (infected with Candida albicans, trichomonas, chlamydia, mycoplasma, or other bacteria) or non-infectious (redundant prepuce, insufficient hygiene, and the accumulation of unclean substances between the prepuce and glans, known as smegma, which can irritate the local prepuce and mucosa, leading to inflammation).
