What are the precautions after nocturnal emission?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello. Hello. After nocturnal emission, I didn't change my underwear and wore them as they were. Is there anything wrong? Last night when I went to bed, I discovered I had nocturnal emission. Because I was in a hurry to get off work, I didn't change my clothes and went to work. Today, there's a little bit of itching down there. Should I apply any medicine to reduce swelling and relieve pain? Doctor, what should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Semen contains a relatively high level of protein. If you do not clean it promptly with your current symptoms, there is a higher likelihood of recurring inflammation. Reappearance of balanitis or posthitis may occur, along with clinical manifestations such as redness, swelling, pain, and discharge on the glans. In this case, it is necessary to visit the hospital for follow-up treatment. For mild clinical symptoms, oral medication is generally sufficient for treatment. However, for severe clinical symptoms, intravenous infusion may be required.
