Patient's question:
The foreskin is red and itchy. The foreskin has become very dry. When taking a bath, a layer of white substance is scrubbed off. Two days ago, there was a sore, broken skin with redness and swelling on the foreskin.Doctor's answer:
Balanoposthitis is generally related to bacterial and fungal infections, and poor hygiene is recommended not to use creams, as they do not achieve the desired healing effect. External washing is advisable, followed by drying and applying topical medication. Pay attention to washing the penis with warm water daily and maintaining good hygiene. In addition to treating balanitis, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate the recovery process.
