Patient's question:
My husband is 28 years old this year. He has had a long foreskin all along. Recently, he doesn't know why he always feels uncomfortable. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said it might be balanitis. As a result, he went to the pharmacy himself and bought some ointment to apply. Is it okay?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in this case, you should consider balanoposthitis. It is recommended to frequently clean the foreskin and glans, always maintaining cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. If there is phimosis or a redundant foreskin, circumcision should be performed. Additionally, during the treatment of balanitis, the patient's dietary condition and care are also crucial. The patient must pay attention to rest, engage in appropriate activities, and avoid unnecessary injuries. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
