How should one deal with itchy and uncomfortable foreskin?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing itchy and painful symptoms on my glans, which is very uncomfortable. I'm not sure what might have caused it, but I suspect it could be related to going ice skating with friends a few days ago, possibly due to the pool water not being very clean. I haven't been able to figure out a specific reason, and I'd like to consult on what I should do about the itchy and painful glans.

Doctor's answer:

From your description of symptoms, it seems to be a recurrence of balanitis. If there is a recurrence of frequent urination and painful urination, it is generally believed to be a recurrence of a urinary tract infection. At this time, it is necessary to promptly go to the hospital for a follow-up examination. If there is a recurrence of inflammation, oral anti-inflammatory drugs should be prescribed for treatment. During the treatment period, you should drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid spicy foods to prevent the possibility of symptoms worsening.
