What medication is used for balanitis?

Patient's question:

Suddenly noticed some small red bumps on the glans, painless and itchy, very upset, sometimes with a stinging sensation, the urethral opening also hurts, sometimes radiating pain from the urethral opening to the abdomen. While taking a bath, noticed some small red spots all over the surface of the glans, very noticeable when erect.

Doctor's answer:

In this case, consider taking oral roxithromycin for balanoposthitis, while also using 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. Male reproductive diseases can be very serious, so it is advised that patients seek immediate treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care training, proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
