Patient's question:
What topical medication is best for treating balanitis quickly? What topical medication is best for treating balanitis quickly?Doctor's answer:
Hello, balanitis is generally caused by factors such as excessive foreskin and the accumulation of smegma. It is recommended to frequently clean the foreskin and glans with warm water to thoroughly remove smegma. Ensure sufficient deep sleep and rest, avoid staying up late and overexerting yourself, and do not eat spicy foods. Wear loose underwear and pants, and you can apply erythromycin ointment for treatment. The condition of the foreskin tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek professional and regular medical attention immediately, and treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, it is important to control sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
