Patient's question:
Penis, redness and itching of the glans, one weekDoctor's answer:
It could be balanitis, often caused by excessive foreskin, smegma, and the accumulation of dirt in the foreskin due to poor hygiene, leading to bacterial infection. Once detected, the foreskin should be retracted and soaked in a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for cleaning, followed by applying an antibiotic ointment and using antibiotics appropriately, which usually heals within a few days. If it is more severe, effective treatment should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.
