What should I do if the head of the penis still grows after circumcision for balanitis?

Patient's question:

Now the glans has itchy scaly skin. I did a urinalysis test. I don't know what the situation is. The foreskin is still long. What should I do now?

Doctor's answer:

After the circumcision surgery for 52 days, the glans has wrinkled and itchy skin. The report shows normal urinalysis. This condition may be due to poor hygiene of the foreskin, with dirt causing irritation. It is recommended to go to the hospital where the surgery was performed for a follow-up examination. Pay attention to cleaning the foreskin when it is retracted and washed, change underwear, and consider using a high-manganese potassium foot bath for 5000 yuan. The condition of balanitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment in professional and regular hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on examination results.
