Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally, due to excessive foreskin, the secretions of the inner foreskin cannot be cleaned in time, allowing pathogens to grow and multiply, causing local inflammation, with symptoms such as: redness, swelling, blisters, red spots, discharge, smegma, itching, and a bad odor. Solutions include: if the condition is mild, it can be treated by frequently rinsing with clean water or using potassium permanganate solution; if it is severe, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis before treatment; if it recurs frequently, it is best to undergo circumcision.
