What are the reasons for recurrent blisters on the foreskin?

Patient's question:

Blisters on the foreskin, recurring three times in a year. Previously, there were several, and this time there's one. They break after a few days and then heal, but the condition flares up again after some time. What's the cause, and how can it be completely cured?

Doctor's answer:

Considering the possibility of balanoposthitis, local topical povidone-iodine can be used for sterilization, followed by applying erythromycin ointment. Pay attention to personal hygiene, wear loose and comfortable cotton underwear, maintain a light diet, avoid spicy, greasy, and irritating foods, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to digest sufficient vitamins and trace elements. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life.
