Patient's question:
I have had balanitis for twenty years. Can I consult if there is a possibility of self-healing of balanitis for twenty years?Doctor's answer:
This does not have a specific time; it needs to be confirmed based on the patient's condition, physical state, and treatment methods. If men use many methods blindly, not only will they not recover quickly, but they may also cause many adverse symptoms. Some people can recover on their own, but others may experience recurrent symptoms. The recurrence of balanitis may be caused by poor hygiene or improper diet. It is advisable to go to a regular urology department for a thorough examination. Based on the examination results, take many antiviral and anti-inflammatory medications, pay close attention to personal unhealthy habits, and frequently clean the affected area, changing underwear and pants. If there is a condition of phimosis, it is recommended to seek medical treatment early for surgical intervention.
