Patient's question:
I am 47 years old, and I haven't had sexual intercourse with my wife. I pay special attention to my physical health, but recently, the pain during urination has become unbearable. My wife said I have balanitis. Which medicine works best?Doctor's answer:
When suffering from balanoposthitis, the affected area can be soaked in a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution and then treated with an anti-inflammatory ointment. For allergic balanoposthitis, oral antihistamines and topical corticosteroid ointments should be used. If phimosis or edema of the prepuce prevents movement or soaking, and if drainage is poor, and the inflammation does not subside after general treatment, preputial dorsal slit surgery may be performed to facilitate drainage.1/5000。。、，，，。。
