Patient's question:
Patient Gender: MaleI have many small white spots on my foreskin, and I don't know what they are.
It has been about 3 months. What could these be?
Doctor's answer:
Your condition should be balanitis. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a smear test to determine whether it is caused by fungi or bacteria. Then, treatment can be administered based on the specific case. If it is fungal, it is advised to apply topical antifungal medication such as Daktarin. For bacterial cases, local application of erythromycin cream and oral antibiotics like azithromycin can be used for treatment.You can also try using potassium permanganate mixed with warm water to form a light pink solution and apply it. Wash once in the morning and once in the evening. Additionally, you can use Boehringer Ingelheim's Bactroban for 3-5 days, which is expected to show results. If there is no improvement, it is essential to seek immediate medical attention.
