Why does the head of the penis hurt after ejaculation

Patient's question:

The day before yesterday, after I finished ejaculating, my glans started to hurt a little. At the time, I didn't pay much attention. Today, after finishing, the pain returned. What could be the reason for the pain in the glans after ejaculation?

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 for treatment. Pay attention to avoiding unclean sexual activity. If there is sexual activity, the female partner should also be examined and treated.
