Patient's question:
Penis redness, swelling, and itching. How to treat itDoctor's answer:
Hello, your condition is a symptom of balanitis. Balanitis is an inflammation of the glans mucosa, a common urological disease in clinical diagnosis. Balanitis often presents with redness or papules at the affected area, along with symptoms of swelling or itching. The pathogens causing the infection vary, and each person's sensitivity to medication differs, leading to significant differences in treatment and medication. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a thorough examination to diagnose the specific pathogen and receive targeted treatment. During the healing period, it is best to avoid sexual activity. For those with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility.
