Patient's question:
My husband has blisters on his corona, but he doesn't have any symptoms. He was told to go to the hospital, but he didn't. What could be the reason for the blisters on the corona?Doctor's answer:
Hello, blisters on the foreskin are caused by sexual activity and excessive foreskin, leading to infections from Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Trichomonas, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, fungi, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, or other bacteria. Alternatively, due to excessive foreskin and inadequate hygiene, unclean substances between the foreskin and glans, known as smegma, may accumulate, stimulating local inflammation of the foreskin and mucous membranes. It is recommended to consult an infectious disease specialist for a definitive diagnosis to facilitate timely and appropriate treatment.
