Patient's question:
What does balanitis look like? What is a bacterial infection? What is a fungal infection? At first, I had a few blisters on the head of my penis, then they broke and became inflamed. What is it contagious?Doctor's answer:
Most importantly, your glans has been broken and has some blisters, which looks a bit serious. If you want to diagnose whether it is a fungal infection or a bacterial infection, you need to have a test and culture to confirm it. It can't be determined just by looking at it, so it is recommended that you go to the urology department of the hospital for an examination. Balanitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use the medication appropriately, and the patient should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay more attention to personal hygiene.
