Patient's question:
The glans and inner foreskin have small white spots, which are painless and itchy. The symptoms improved after several days of continuous rinsing with clean water. It has been one and a half months.First follow-up question: My partner has candidiasis (yeast infection), could it have been transmitted to me? How should it be treated?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, the small white spots on your glans and inner foreskin are caused by the accumulation of smegma due to infrequent cleaning. Rinsing them with water will solve the problem. In the future, pay attention to hygiene around the penis.Your partner's candidiasis (yeast infection) can be transmitted to you, but these white spots are not.
It is recommended that your partner actively treat the candidiasis. As everyone knows, balanitis (glans inflammation) can cause significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, pay attention to dietary habits—prioritize a light diet and avoid foods (irritating foods). Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary if needed.
