What are the diagnostic criteria for balanoposthitis?

Patient's question:

Previously, only a part of the inner side of the glans and foreskin was red, with some pain and itching, and some light yellow discharge was secreted. After two days, something like a red spot appeared, but I didn't pay much attention. However, it has been more than half a month, and the red spots still haven't disappeared. What should I do? Should I go to the hospital for treatment?

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis:
Hello, your condition should be balanoposthitis. It may be caused by poor hygiene.
Recommendations:
It is recommended that you visit the urology department of a hospital for diagnosis and treatment. Medication can be used for treatment. It is suggested to take levofloxacin orally. Use a high-manganese potassium permanganate solution with a concentration of 1/5000 for cleaning, twice a day. After cleaning, let it air dry. During medication, sexual activity should be avoided.
