Patient's question:
Since October 20th, when I got balanitis, it has been more than two months. At the end of December, after the circumcision surgery, the wound was still red and has been like this ever since. I haven’t dared to do anything, especially when I get erect, it’s very noticeable. There’s also a small patch of red spots that get a bit bigger when I get erect. I went to the hospital, and the doctor said to apply some miconazole nitrate cream, and it would be fine. I used it for over a week, but it didn’t improve. I went back to the hospital and saw another doctor, who said to apply erythromycin ophthalmic ointment. After using it for half a month, it’s still a bit red sometimes, and it itches a little. When I wash it daily, I can smell a bit of odor. What should I do to get better quickly?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to clarify this situation for you. This condition involves balanitis, which can be further treated by applying Kangfuxin solution and using Baigao externally. Oral medications such as levofloxacin, metronidazole, and vitamin C can also be taken for treatment. It is recommended that you pay attention to rest, maintain good hygiene, avoid prolonged standing or exertion, and avoid catching colds. Additionally, avoid alcohol, spicy foods, and other irritating foods. You can visit a regular hospital's urology department for further examination and treatment.Furthermore, during the treatment of balanitis, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must ensure proper digestion, prevent stomach issues, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answers can help you. Thank you.
