Patient's question:
Doctor, the possibility is that it's a result of my lack of focus in my daily life. The balanitis is not only swollen but also very painful, sometimes accompanied by a foul smell. I have tried various different creams, but they haven't made any improvement. When it gets better, I dare not take medicine casually.Doctor's answer:
Balanitis refers to the inflammation of the glans penis. This condition can be caused by various pathogens, local irritation, and other factors. Balanoposthitis refers to the inflammation of the inner foreskin and the glans penis. A normal foreskin cavity secretes a lipid substance. When the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, this substance can accumulate as smegma, irritating the foreskin and glans penis, leading to balanoposthitis. Drug allergy-induced balanitis is a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction and is very common in clinical diagnosis. It typically occurs 24 to 72 hours after medication. During the treatment of balanitis, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must digest vitamins, prevent diarrhea, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm. It is hoped that the above answer can assist you.
