Patient's question:
Approximately half a year ago, I had a red head on my glans that kept recurring. At the urology hospital, they diagnosed it as balanitis and performed a circumcision. It has been a month since the surgery, and it has recurred again. (Here, can I first upload photos?)Doctor's answer:
Caused by infection with Candida albicans, trichomonas, chlamydia, mycoplasma, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, or other bacteria; non-infectious factors are often due to excessive foreskin, inadequate hygiene, and the accumulation of unclean substances between the foreskin and glans, known as smegma, which can irritate the local foreskin and mucosa, leading to inflammation.
