Patient's question:
My friend has been feeling unwell recently and went to the hospital for a routine thorough examination. The doctor discovered that he has balanitis, so he wants to understand specifically how to treat balanitis.Doctor's answer:
If the foreskin is too long and without proper hygiene, the scales accumulate in the foreskin, and if bacterial infection leads to a higher recurrence of the disease, only the glans and inner foreskin are washed, accompanied by severe itching, pain, and tenderness. A better solution is to use potassium permanganate solution or hydrogen peroxide externally. In daily life, pay attention to regulating your schedule to ensure deep sleep, drink more, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid spicy and other irritating foods. Avoid smoking and alcohol.
