Is it balanitis?

Patient's question:

Penis foreskin is too long, but it has never affected normal life. Recently, it has been itchy, and the glans has appeared small pimples again this time. They don't hurt or itch, but they feel painful. How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Consider the condition of phimosis, where it is difficult to clean promptly, leading to local inflammation. It is recommended to pay attention to hygiene in the private area. If phimosis is present, consider undergoing circumcision. Currently, local treatment can involve applying an antibacterial ointment to see the effect. If necessary, follow up promptly to avoid missing the opportunity for treatment. Balanitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay more attention to personal hygiene.
