Patient's question:
I recently don't know why I feel particularly uncomfortable downstairs, and I'm also not experiencing morning erections anymore. How should I treat the redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin and glans?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it may be balanoposthitis. Balanoposthitis is caused by excessive foreskin, as the secretions cannot be cleared promptly due to the excess foreskin, allowing pathogens to grow and reproduce, leading to local inflammation. Symptoms include redness, swelling, blisters, red spots, discharge, smegma, itching, and a bad odor. It is recommended to visit a professional urological hospital for examination. It is best to undergo a foreskin surgery to prevent the occurrence of balanoposthitis.
