Where is the best place to treat penile tuberculosis?

Patient's question:

Lately, I've been experiencing frequent urination and a burning sensation during urination. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said I have penile tuberculosis.

Doctor's answer:

Treatment involves the use of antitubercular drugs, local dressing changes with streptomycin solution, and, if necessary, debridement of the lesion or partial penectomy. Severe urethral tuberculosis, which may rupture and directly spread to involve the penis, can form fistulas.
