Patient's question:
Please ask the doctor to take a look and see if it's any kind of illness. Should I go to the hospital to check? Besides, what kind of medicine is needed? Additionally, it seems that potassium permanganate is strictly prohibited from being purchased in pharmacies now. I happen to have a friend in a laboratory, and the potassium permanganate taken from the laboratory is the same as the one sold in the hospital, right? Will it have side effects? What kind of assistance do I need: Please ask the doctor for some help.Doctor's answer:
Your condition should be balanitis, and you can use potassium permanganate solution to wash it, which works very well; a laboratory can also do it, it should be the same; this type of medication is for external use and will not cause any side effects.Advice: Additionally, I think you might have phimosis. If this inflammation heals, it's best to undergo circumcision, because phimosis is often a cause of inflammation. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If it's not treated promptly, it can affect your health. Therefore, patients should take medication on time and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
