Patient's question:
Earlier, a small red spot reappeared on the glans, painless and itchy. After applying Triamcinolone Acetonide and Clotrimazole Cream, it disappeared. Now, upon close inspection, the glans still appears slightly red (painless and itchy). Unsure how to completely cure it?Doctor's answer:
The photos show symptoms that are not likely to be indicative of infectious genital herpes. It is more probable that the condition is caused by inflammation and irritation of the glans. It is recommended to take oral metronidazole and apply fluconazole cream externally. Additionally, you can use potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. During this period, maintain good hygiene. Once the inflammation subsides, consider undergoing circumcision. For patients with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely and appropriate treatment, and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
