Patient's question:
Still about the foreskin. Some sores, during a hot shower. There's a very itchy spot on the foreskin, so I applied Dianping (a topical corticosteroid). Applied it to the glans too. The white spots feel cold. After applying it to the foreskin, it a bit painful. How should I treat foreskin ulcers?Doctor's answer:
Based on your symptoms, the possible causes include infections, such as candidiasis, trichomoniasis, chlamydia, mycoplasma, gonococcal infection, or other bacterial infections, often transmitted through sexual activity. Alternatively, it may be due to excessive foreskin, inadequate hygiene, or the accumulation of unclean substances between the foreskin and glans, known as smegma, which can irritate the local foreskin and mucosa, leading to inflammation again.It is recommended that you visit our Maternal and Child Urological Infection Department for a follow-up examination. The Bio-Genetic Testing System can accurately identify the infectious pathogens, enabling targeted treatment.
In addition to timely treatment, patients with urological conditions should also pay attention to maintaining a positive mood in daily life, as a good mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease.
