Patient's question:
Below my glans, on both sides of the umbilical cord, there have been three or four small white spots. Is it a sexually transmitted disease? It seems like they multiplied after a break. Now there are a few more. It's still due to poor hygiene. I have previously undergone a circumcision procedure.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this condition is balanoposthitis. It can be caused by unsafe sexual practices or phimosis. Infections with mycoplasma, chlamydia, streptococcus, staphylococcus, E. coli, or Candida albicans can all lead to it. Alternatively, it may result from phimosis, insufficient hygiene, or the accumulation of unclean substances between the foreskin and glans, which irritates the foreskin and mucous membranes, causing inflammation. Moreover, you should directly go to a professional hospital for examination. This way, you can save time, effort, and money. Blindly seeking medical treatment not only cannot guarantee the cure of the disease but may also delay proper treatment.
