The glans is dry with white scales on the surface, which can be rubbed off with hands.

Patient's question:

The glans is dry with white scales on top, which can be rubbed off by hand, it seems like the glans is shedding. I feel like my erection is not hard enough, what could be the reason? And I am uncircumcised.

Doctor's answer:

Problem Analysis: This could potentially be caused by balanoposthitis, and it is also related to poor local hygiene conditions. Repeated bacterial infections of the foreskin and glans lead to secretions.
Advice: It is recommended to consume more loofah and pay attention to cleaning foreskin smegma. Topical erythromycin-based anti-inflammatory medications can be used locally. If the redness and swelling do not subside, it is advisable to visit the urology department of a hospital for a secretory culture test. After understanding the condition, the treatment plan can include circumcision.
