Patient's question:
How should balanitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
This situation is related to long-term friction or caused by poor hygiene. It is recommended that you wear loose clothing to prevent further irritation. If you have antibiotics or topical disinfectants at home, you can use them for local sterilization to alleviate the condition. For severe cases, oral antibiotics can be added for treatment. For patients with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce the recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life while avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
