I want to ask how effective the treatment for balanitis is.

Patient's question:

After using a delay spray for sex for three days, the glans penis where the delay spray was applied became red with small red spots. It doesn't hurt or itch. I bought some ointment from a pharmacy, and the red spots disappeared, but the area is still red, especially when washing with warm water. Now the skin of the glans has become very wrinkled, and the foreskin also gets easily red and swollen from friction. There are no other uncomfortable symptoms. How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

This clinical presentation is caused by an inflammatory response or an allergic reaction. In your current condition, it is recommended to consult a professional urology and dermatology department for a clear diagnosis to determine the appropriate antiallergic medication for treatment. Pay attention to washing with warm water daily to maintain hygiene. Balanitis can be cured, 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 and use the medication appropriately. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay more attention to personal hygiene.
