Patient's question:
I am 20 years old and have developed balanitis due to excessive and frequent sexual activity. Now I have also reached the age of having a girlfriend. Will balanitis be contagious? What should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
Consider balanoposthitis, take oral roxithromycin, and simultaneously use potassium permanganate solution for cleaning. It is recommended to frequently clean the foreskin and glans to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the foreskin cavity. If there is phimosis or excessive foreskin, circumcision should be performed. In addition to timely treatment for balanitis, patients should maintain a positive attitude to face the disease, as this can help reduce immune function and the ability to combat the illness. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to dietary care and maintain a balanced nutrition to ensure the body absorbs nutrients effectively, believing that this will help eliminate balanitis.
