Patient's question:
Last night, I ate some Northeast black fungus. At night, my underwear and penis were a bit itchy. I asked the doctor.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it may be a symptom of balanitis. First, it is necessary to maintain local cleanliness and dryness. You can use a weak saline solution or potassium permanganate solution for local cleaning. Generally, it is necessary to retract the foreskin if it is too long for cleaning. If there is a condition of phimosis, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment to avoid recurrent episodes. It usually takes about 2 weeks to recover.Advice: It is recommended to clean the foreskin and glans frequently, keeping the foreskin cavity clean and dry. If phimosis or paraphimosis is present, circumcision should be performed. In daily life, maintain a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
