Patient's question:
I have had a red and swollen glans with pus discharge for a while. Upon careful examination, it was found to be gonococcal balanitis. I would like to ask what medication should be taken for gonococcal balanitis?Doctor's answer:
The flexible use of medications for gonococcal balanitis should be implemented under the guidance of a doctor. It is not recommended to use medications independently to avoid improper medication use, which may hinder effective control of the condition and lead to missed opportunities for optimal treatment. It is essential to promptly return the examination results to the doctor and communicate with the attending physician to determine the specific treatment plan. Coordination with the doctor in implementing treatment is very important, and strictly following the doctor's instructions regarding medication use is crucial. The first follow-up observation of the treatment effect helps the doctor adjust the treatment plan accordingly.
