Patient's question:
For several months, I started experiencing a itch. After a wet sensation, the foreskin and glans developed red spots, with tiny white dots on them.Doctor's answer:
Consider it to be symptoms of balanitis. The common causes of balanitis are bacterial infections due to local uncleanliness, or a weakened immune system, and fungal balanitis caused by sexual transmission. For bacterial balanitis, potassium permanganate solution can be used for cleaning, and Bactroban ointment can be applied externally for treatment. Fungal balanitis requires cleaning with sodium bicarbonate solution and the use of Daktarin ointment externally. Pay attention to avoiding unsafe sexual practices. If there is sexual activity, the female partner should also be examined and treated.
