Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have had balanitis for 2 years and it frequently flares up. Now my foreskin often has a burning sensation, and there is some redness at the foreskin.Doctor's answer:
You are currently considering balanitis. It is generally caused by long-term foreskin covering the glans and poor local hygiene. It is recommended to retract the foreskin and clean the glans regularly, paying attention to local hygiene. Pay attention to safe and clean sexual activity. Apply erythromycin ointment externally. If there is phimosis, consider circumcision. I wish you a speedy recovery.The condition of balanitis tends to recur frequently, requiring long-term medication for maintenance. For male patients, it is important to seek professional and regular medical treatment immediately. Treatment should be considered based on detailed examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to restrict sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
