Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is likely balanitis, possibly caused by phimosis or excessive masturbation. You can try using potassium permanganate solution for a wash to see if it improves. If it doesn’t work, it’s recommended to go to the hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment.
As everyone knows, penile tuberculosis can cause significant harm to patients, so it’s important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid foods. Maintain a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
