Patient's question:
The condition is quite serious. How can be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Balanitis (balanitis) refers to the inflammation of the glans penis. This condition can be caused by various pathogens, local irritation, and other factors. To treat it, retract the foreskin and use a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution to clean the area, while maintaining dryness. If the foreskin cannot be retracted, the posterior part of the foreskin may be incised to facilitate drainage and cleaning. Balanitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and it tends to recur after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
