How do you know if it's balanitis?

Patient's question:

Please look at the pictures to see if it's balanitis. Does it need treatment? I want to use an external ointment. Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

You have some small red spots on your glans, which looks like symptoms of balanitis. The ones on the coronal sulcus are genital pearls. The small red spots on the glans can be treated with ointment. The genital pearls on the coronal sulcus do not require treatment. Pay attention to hygiene and gently clean them. Balanitis tends to recur, so long-term medication treatment is necessary. For male patients, it is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking and maintain good personal hygiene.
