Patient's question:
I recently noticed many small red bumps on the edge of my penis, like sand grains in size, sometimes with a slightly itchy sensation!! Can I use Juncibijing? I used it and felt much better, but sometimes it still feels a bit itchy.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Please do not use antibiotics casually to avoid developing resistance. I see nothing wrong with this being a normal phenomenon. You can use 10Z liquid to solve it. Based on your symptoms, the small red spots on your glans may indicate an infection, leading to balanoposthitis. Considering the symptoms are mild, they may come and go. I recommend frequently cleaning your glans and foreskin with warm water to prevent repeated infections and worsening of the condition.Do you have phimosis (excessive foreskin)? Phimosis can also lead to glans infection and balanoposthitis. Balanoposthitis is caused by phimosis, where the inner foreskin's secretions cannot be cleaned promptly, allowing pathogens to grow and reproduce, leading to local inflammation. Symptoms include redness, blisters, red spots, discharge, smegma, itching, and a bad odor.
Solutions: If the condition is mild, frequent cleaning with plain water may suffice. If it's severe, seek medical attention for diagnosis and treatment. If it recurs frequently, circumcision is the best option to prevent balanoposthitis.
