Patient's question:
I recently don't know what's going on, my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. Is it syphilis if there are a few small red spots appearing on my penis head?Doctor's answer:
It could be balanitis. It is recommended that you use antifungal or antibiotic creams or oral antibiotics. You can use boric acid water or rivanol solution to externally wash the affected area. Drink more water, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Symptoms of balanitis caused by urinary tract infections may include fever if severe. Drinking more water is key to preventing recurrence. Rest and avoid spicy foods. Oral ciprofloxacin and metronidazole can be used for treatment, which can help recover. If ineffective, intravenous treatment can be used. It is essential to receive proper treatment to avoid chronic inflammation. Wish you a speedy recovery.
