Patient's question:
How can the prevention work be done for a red and swollen glans?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it should be the symptoms of balanitis. The basic principles of treatment are anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. Generally, it involves both internal and external treatment. For the treatment of acute superficial balanitis and annular purulent balanitis, erythromycin and tetracycline are the first-line choices. For trichomoniasis balanitis, metronidazole is the first-line choice. For balanitis caused by Candida albicans, it is common to use griseofulvin or itraconazole. Balanitis with redness and swelling can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment.
