How to treat balanitis?

Patient's question:

Hello, is this balanitis? What type is it? What are the small white spots on the foreskin in the picture?

Doctor's answer:

From the picture you sent, it appears you may have balanitis, which is likely related to personal hygiene. Fungal infection is not ruled out. For fungal infection, it is recommended to pay attention to personal hygiene, wash daily, and use a liquid for external washing. If you have phimosis, surgery is suggested. Since patients are directly facing the harm of balanitis, we should promptly implement symptomatic treatment principles and not avoid seeking medical attention. If balanitis does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly switch to an alternative treatment plan.
