For treating balanitis, it is recommended to go to a formal urological hospital for a thorough examination to determine the type of balanitis, whether infectious or non-infectious. Based on the specific cause, a scientific and reasonable treatment plan should be decided for the treatment. The duration of treatment needs to be confirmed based on the severity and length of the course. Balanitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to promptly seek treatment at a professional and formal hospital, and the treatment should be considered based on the examination results.
