Patient's question:
Completed circumcision surgery two months agoDoctor's answer:
The main cause of balanoposthitis is excessive foreskin or phimosis, as the area cannot be cleaned frequently. The shedding of keratinized epithelial cells and glandular secretion create favorable conditions for the growth of other bacteria, leading to chronic inflammation. Currently, in addition to systemic antibacterial treatment for penile balanitis, local cleaning should be performed. Balanoposthitis can recur, and circumcision should be performed after the inflammation has completely subsided! It is recommended to seek treatment at relevant formal specialized hospitals.
