Patient's question:
What is the reason for the recent redness and itching of the scrotum?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your symptoms, it should be acute superficial balanitis. Generally, it is caused by excessive foreskin, where the inner lining's secretions cannot be cleared promptly, allowing pathogens to grow and multiply, leading to local inflammation with symptoms such as: redness, swelling, blisters, red spots, discharge, smegma, itching, and a bad odor.The solution: If it is mild, you can regularly clean with clean water or potassium permanganate solution for treatment.
