What is the effective treatment for redness and swelling of the foreskin?

Patient's question:

How to treat red and swollen foreskin? How to use medication after rinsing with salt water?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the situation you described, I believe this is a manifestation of local inflammation. Anti-inflammatory drugs can be used for treatment.
Hello, based on your condition, I suggest you relax, get plenty of rest, and maintain a proper diet while avoiding spicy foods. Always keep the affected area clean and enhance local care. You can use povidone-iodine for sterilizing wipes on the glans and foreskin, and take oral antibiotics for anti-inflammatory effects. For those with foreskin issues, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
