Patient's question:
Previously, I had balanitis, and later underwent surgery. I used ointment for treatment, and then went for sampling and testing, which showed no fungus, only a very small amount of miscellaneous bacteria. Now, I occasionally have some itching and slight redness, and the doctor said it's an allergy. I'm not sure if it's due to friction between the foreskin and the underwear. I want to know what kind of ointment is best for treating a sensitive penis.Doctor's answer:
The best method for treating allergic diseases is to identify the allergen and then avoid contact with it as much as possible. This is the best approach for prevention and treatment. I recommend you to revisit the urology department of the hospital. It would be helpful to upload photos of the affected area. Replace your underwear and maintain good local hygiene at all times. This is very important. Balanitis can be relieved, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it tends to recur after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms.
