What should I do if the foreskin covers part of the penis?

Patient's question:

About two months ago, the foreskin was swollen and red with small bumps, but it healed on its own without treatment. Last last week, on Thursday and Friday, I noticed the same symptoms again on the covered part of the foreskin—redness, swelling, small bumps, and a hard, pale blueish area inside the foreskin. What should I do about the covered part of the penis foreskin?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, the main consideration is primarily due to phimosis or paraphimosis leading to balanoposthitis. For this condition, it is important to pay attention to the hygiene of the foreskin and glans. You can use potassium permanganate for cleaning. After the inflammation subsides, you may consider undergoing a circumcision procedure. Additionally, during the treatment of male genital diseases, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must avoid excessive mental tension and worry to prevent unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery from male genital diseases.
