Patient's question:
Description of the condition: The specific time is unclear; it has been about one or two years. Occasionally, there is some itching, and there is a smell, but the area is very small. Since it was first discovered, it has not expanded. Treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been received. What kind of help is desired: What topical medication can be used to address this?Doctor's answer:
The causes of your symptoms can be many, potentially resulting from sexual activity or excessive foreskin. Infections caused by Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Trichomonas, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, fungi, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, or other bacteria can all lead to this condition. Alternatively, if the foreskin is too long and not cleaned properly, the dirty material between the foreskin and the glans, known as smegma, can accumulate and irritate the local foreskin and mucous membranes, causing inflammation. It is recommended to consult an infectious disease specialist for a clear diagnosis to facilitate timely and appropriate treatment.
