Patient's question:
I am 20 years old, married, and after soaking in a public bath, I experienced recurring and developed many small spots, as well as a recurrence of them inside the foreskin. It has been more than three months.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, it is likely balanitis. There are many reasons that can lead to balanitis, including: excessive foreskin (buildup of smegma causing inflammatory reactions), poor hygiene (friction, condoms, soap, detergents, synthetic underwear, etc.), and unprotected sex. Your condition may be related to exposure to poor hygiene during baths. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided, and you should avoid spicy and alcoholic foods that are. Pay attention to local hygiene, and it is best to wash the glans and penis daily. Cotton underwear and pants are recommended. If you have excessive foreskin, it is advisable to have a circumcision early on.
