How to properly treat balanitis?

Patient's question:

The glans penis is covered by the foreskin for one or two days, and when the foreskin is retracted, the glans becomes locally fixed. It will resemble a wound, with an area about the size of two soybeans, and there is a bad odor. Over ten years, it has gradually healed on its own. For π years now, there has been no development or improvement. Please advise. Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Currently, it is not yet clear what factors have caused your balanoposthitis. It is recommended that you visit a hospital in a timely manner to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. If the balanoposthitis is caused by excessive foreskin, it is advisable to undergo circumcision as soon as possible to avoid delaying the condition. I believe everyone knows that urinary tract infections 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.
