Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:More is not good, so let's just stick to this. The doctor said I have balanitis and gave me antibiotics and IV drips. Now I feel even worse than before, like it's starting to come off a bit. How is balanitis treated?
Doctor's answer:
But you don't need to worry; during balanitis, you can soak the affected area in a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution and apply an anti-inflammatory ointment. For allergic balanitis, oral antihistamines and topical corticosteroid ointments are required. If phimosis or swollen foreskin prevents movement or drainage, and the inflammation does not subside with standard treatment, a preputial dorsal slit may be performed to facilitate drainage. Once the inflammation has completely resolved, a circumcision can be performed.Balanitis patients can use home remedies as supplementary treatment while understanding and following the prescribed treatment. It is essential to avoid extreme hunger or overeating in daily diet and never indulge in binge eating.
