Patient's question:
Male, 26 years old. The hospital examination said it has been about 20 days since the diagnosis of balanitis and CP.Currently, there is no itching or pain, and after applying medicine for several days, there is no scab formation or healing. Based on the pictures, how severe does this look? Please ask the doctor what medicine works best for a faster recovery.
Doctor's answer:
You are describing balanitis, which can be caused by conditions such as excessive foreskin, phimosis, groin eczema, or sexually transmitted diseases. It is recommended to receive intravenous antibiotics, sit in a bath with potassium permanganate solution, actively treat the underlying condition, avoid spicy foods, and prevent cross-infection. I believe everyone knows that balanitis can cause significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, pay attention to dietary issues, and maintain a light diet, avoiding irritating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
