Patient's question:
On both sides of my penis, to be precise, about 7-8 millimeters away from the glans, there are two grain-sized, red growths. They are not perfectly symmetrical and have remained unchanged for about 7-8 months.Previous diagnosis and treatment history and outcomes: I have visited several hospitals, all of which are Level 3A hospitals.
1. One hospital said it was nothing and prescribed Pimecrolimus cream. It didn’t work.
2. Another suggested it was flat warts and prescribed medication, but I didn’t use it.
3. A third diagnosed it as genital warts after an acetic acid test, and the growths turned white.
4. The diagnosis stated it wasn’t genital warts, and even if they turn white, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are.
Doctor's answer:
??????Your condition is generally considered to be symptoms caused by balanitis, which is related to hygiene or phimosis.It is recommended to take oral antibiotics such as Cefixime. Apply Bactroban ointment externally.
During the treatment period, sexual activity should be avoided, and the glans should be kept clean. I believe most people know that balanitis can cause significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, with a focus on a light diet and avoiding irritating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary if needed.
