Patient's question:
My boyfriend told me that his glans isn't very comfortable, it's a bit red and swollen, and it also itches. But he doesn't know what to do about it. I was wondering if it could be the prostatitis that everyone mentions. I want to ask what are the early symptoms of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the glans is not very comfortable, it is red, swollen, and still painful. This condition is not a symptom of prostatitis, but rather balanitis. The symptoms of prostatitis mainly include frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, and difficulty urinating, while balanitis is a recurring issue with the glans. It is important to pay attention to hygiene, use topical medications for cleaning, and take oral medications as prescribed. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Wishing you good health.
