Patient's question:
Hello, based on the picture, is it suspected to be balanitis caused by fungi, bacteria, or other types? Can you see it? Thank you, doctorDoctor's answer:
Guidance and Suggestions: After looking at the picture, it is likely caused by a bacterial infection. If you experience burning or itching on the glans, you should go to the hospital for a thorough examination by a doctor. Blood and urine tests should be conducted, followed by a smear diagnosis. Based on the condition, medication can be prescribed to alleviate balanitis. However, the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after recovery. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan, use medication appropriately, and maintain a healthy lifestyle with proper diet during the treatment. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
