Patient's question:
Male, 18 years old, developed swelling of the foreskin again three days after taking an overdose of cold medicine. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Use a cleanser suitable for your skin type to clean your skin. The issue to pay attention to is preventing further irritation, and try to avoid scratching with your hands as much as possible. Avoid applying those with strong irritants locally, especially topical steroid medications, as the condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence. Long-term medication is required. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
