Patient's question:
The other two nights, the penis was excited, and there was rust inside the foreskin, with red rashes, foreskin swelling, and it has been two days. In some places, it's like scarring, and it hurts when touched. Hello, is this syphilis?Doctor's answer:
Syphilis in its early stage presents as a hard sore, often forming pus on the glans penis, which then scabs over to create a lump, roughly the size of a penny. If there has been unsafe sexual activity, it should be taken seriously. If not, it's advisable to consider balanitis first. It can be treated by soaking with potassium permanganate powder in a proportional solution, or by applying isoniazid wet dressing followed by an antibiotic ointment externally. There are many treatment methods for male diseases, but since the condition of each patient is different, the treatment methods used will also vary. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as symptoms are noticed.
