What is the reason for the redness and swelling of the foreskin?

Patient's question:

During sexual activity, there is pain in the foreskin, and after the activity, the foreskin is swollen and red. It has been two days, and the pain has subsided, but this has never happened before.

Hello, this should be a symptom of balanitis. It is recommended to try treating it with external use of Bacitracin or erythromycin ointment, combined with cleaning and treatment using potassium permanganate solution. Also, avoid foods and maintain local hygiene.
