Patient's question:
1. Noticed two days ago, there are red spots on the. Now the foreskin skin shows signs of peeling.2. Only the foreskin is itchy.
Treatment history and effectiveness:
1. On the first day, I applied ointment, and it stopped itching.
2. Yesterday, I took roxithromycin dispersible tablets and used erythromycin eye drops, but it couldn’t completely eliminate the itching (because erythromycin eye drops are said to have anti-inflammatory effects, so I used them).
What kind of assistance I need:
1. Based on my experience, what type of balanitis should it be?
2. What medication should I use?
3. How long will it take to recover?
Doctor's answer:
In this case, consider taking oral roxithromycin for balanoposthitis, while also using potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. It is recommended to frequently clean the foreskin and glans to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. If there is phimosis or excessive foreskin, circumcision should be performed. The condition of the foreskin tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek professional and regular medical treatment, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to control sexual activity and maintain a good mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
