Patient's question:
Strangulated prepuce, the prepuce cannot be retracted after intercourse, resulting in edema. But during surgery, it was found to be purulent—what's going on? Strangulated prepuce?Doctor's answer:
There are two situations for balanitis after sexual activity: One is that if the frequency of sexual activity is high in a short period, the stimulation intensity is strong, or the duration of sexual activity is long, it may cause swelling of the foreskin again due to poor venous return. This situation is often discovered after sexual activity and will naturally subside. However, prevention is necessary to avoid the recurrence of phimosis due to foreskin swelling, where the foreskin swells and traps the glans, requiring immediate medical attention. The other situation is that balanitis and foreskin inflammation may occur during sexual activity, leading to swelling of the foreskin. In this case, further examination and treatment are needed in a professional urological department.Consider balanitis:
1. Maintain local cleanliness to prevent secondary infection;
2. For exudative and purulent discharge, use 3% boric acid solution or 0.1% rivanol wet dressing;
3. Non-infectious subacute phase
