Patient's question:
Is candidal balanitis required to have circumcision surgery, in addition to laser treatment? Is it difficult to treat?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis is also relatively common in men. Generally, treatment involves the use of topical solutions and creams for symptomatic relief. Currently, you can soak the glans and foreskin in potassium permanganate solution for three to four minutes daily to achieve local cleaning, antibacterial, and antifungal effects. Then, apply ketoconazole cream mixed with ointment. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided, and underwear should be changed frequently. If you need to return to the hospital for follow-up, it is recommended to go to a regular public hospital. It is not advisable to visit many private urology or specialized hospitals.
