The glans is slightly red and swollen, the foreskin is itchy and painful, and there is no unusual sensation when urinating.

Patient's question:

Initially, there was a feeling of excessive friction with slight pain. After three or four days, the glans became slightly red and swollen, with itching and pain in the foreskin. It appeared there were small spots under the glans' skin, and in some areas of the foreskin, it seemed like blisters were about to form, causing pain upon touch. The urethral opening felt slightly itchy, but there was no unusual sensation during urination. What illness could this be, and what could be the cause?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, considering your condition, it is likely to be balanitis. It is recommended to use a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution for local soaking and apply an anti-inflammatory ointment. Pay attention to maintaining local hygiene, avoiding irritation, and preventing secondary infection.
