Patient's question:
There are white spots at the top of the foreskin, what is the reason?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is leukoplakia of the glans, for which there is currently no specific treatment, but it often resolves spontaneously. Since leukoplakia of the glans is associated with chronic irritation from smegma, and the lesions may have the potential to transform into cancer, all individuals with leukoplakia of the glans who have phimosis or excessive prepuce should undergo circumcision as soon as possible. It is recommended that patients seek medical attention at a formal urology department. If the balanitis is caused by excessive prepuce, circumcision may be performed. If there is a bacterial infection, active anti-inflammatory and symptomatic treatment should be administered. A clear diagnosis and corresponding treatment are essential.
