Patient's question:
How to treat acute superficial balanitis is sterile and is only caused by excessive friction.Doctor's answer:
The basic principle of treatment is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. Generally, it involves both internal and external treatment. For the medication treatment of acute superficial balanitis and circinate suppurative balanitis, the following points should be noted:(1) Pay attention to local hygiene. Wash the glans and foreskin daily. If the foreskin is too long, timely treatment is necessary, and circumcision may be required if necessary. It is very important to clean the smegma promptly.
(2) If one partner has a genital disease, sexual activity should be suspended, and timely treatment is needed. If the infection is caused by trichomoniasis or Candida, both partners should be treated simultaneously.
(3) Avoid unsafe sex and maintain a clean lifestyle.
(4) If ulcers or erosion develop, change the dressing promptly, twice daily, to prevent discomforting irritation.
