Patient's question:
How effective is the treatment for balanoposthitis?Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be balanitis, and the small red spots on the glans are typical symptoms of balanoposthitis. Balanoposthitis refers to the inflammation of the inner foreskin and the glans penis. Normally, a lipid substance secreted in the foreskin cavity can accumulate as smegma when the foreskin is too long or phimotic, irritating the foreskin and glans to cause balanoposthitis. It is recommended to use 3% boric acid solution 200ml, twice daily, for 20 minutes each time. Wash the foreskin and glans frequently to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. Balanitis tends to recur easily, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek medical attention immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination.
