Patient's question:

Is this balanitis? Fungal, bacterial, or other types of infection?Guidance: Based on the symptoms, it is likely a bacterial infection. If you experience burning or itching on the glans, you should go to the hospital for a thorough examination by a doctor. Blood and urine tests, as well as smear diagnostics, should be conducted to determine the condition and appropriate medication for treating balanitis. The condition tends to recur, so long-term medication may be necessary.
For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity are recommended. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
