Patient's question:
About three or four days ago, the symptoms started. There were small red spots on the corona margin and glans. Initially, it was slightly itchy, but now it's a bit more severe. Yesterday, I saw a doctor who diagnosed it as balanitis and prescribed Ciprofloxacin capsules. About a week ago, there was a sexual encounter without a condom. My wife had symptoms of vaginal itching. Will Ciprofloxacin capsules be effective for balanitis?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, patients with balanitis should also pay attention to maintaining a proper diet in daily life to digest nutrients. It is hoped that the above answer can assist you.
