Patient's question:
Patient Age: There are neatly arranged small blisters around the glans. What kind of assistance is needed: Want to know what medicine to use.Doctor's answer:
Acute superficial balanoposthitis initially presents with local erythema, redness and swelling of the penis, accompanied by a sensation of burning and itching in the glans. Flipping back the foreskin reveals congestion, edema, and purulent discharge on the inner surface of the foreskin and glans, with even broken skin. Secondary bacterial infection leads to the formation of ulcers and the presence of foul-smelling creamy purulent discharge. These symptoms can worsen due to local friction or poor foreskin movement, with accumulated secretions irritating the wound. The subjective symptoms include local pain, which becomes more pronounced after friction, making the patient feel significantly limited in movement.Recommendations: For balanitis treatment, corticosteroid ointment is recommended. For cases with congestion and exudate as the primary issue, use potassium permanganate solution or phenol-creolin solution for wet compresses.
