Patient's question:
The foreskin is very dry, with cracks, and it hurts a lot. At first, it was itchy, but by the third day, it had already started to hurt. I took a look and noticed there were cracks.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Excessive foreskin refers to the foreskin covering the urethral meatus but can be retracted to reveal the urethral meatus and glans penis. My suggestion is to take some antibiotics orally and apply povidone-iodine to the affected area. It is important to keep the gauze dressing dry at all times. If it falls off or gets wet with urine, replace it promptly to prevent infection. There are many treatment methods for male genital diseases, but since the symptoms of patients vary, the treatment methods used will also differ. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as they notice symptoms.
