What are the symptoms of penile inflammation?

There are differences between male and female reproductive organs. Female sexual organs are mainly external organs, which are easily invaded by bacteria and suffer from gynecological diseases. However, this does not mean that men are not likely to be invaded by bacteria. When the foreskin of men is too long, it is easy to harbor dirt and produce related inflammation, which not only affects sexual function but also physical health. So, what are the symptoms of penile inflammation?

Symptoms of Penitis

Symptoms of vulvitis include redness, swelling, pain, and itching of the glans penis and foreskin. Some cases may develop erosion and ulceration, and yellow purulent secretions with a special odor. In severe cases, the glans penis may become necrotic. Some patients may develop adhesion and stenosis of the urethra after the acute phase, causing difficulty in urination. Repeated infections may cause thickening of the glans penis or foreskin, forming white spots. Long-term stimulation of the glans penis by smegma may also lead to penile cancer.

In addition, a wife's cervical cancer is also related to the irritation of her husband's smegma. Vulvitis is more common in men around 20-30 years old. The damage mainly occurs at the junction of the edge of the glans and the coronal sulcus or the frenulum. The damage is a papule, and the damage on both sides of the frenulum is larger. The top of the papule is round and smooth, and some papules are hairy or filamentous. The papules are mostly not fused with each other, and are densely arranged in one or more rows. They are obvious on the dorsal side of the glans and can partially or completely surround the glans. The color of the damage is mostly pearly white, a few are light red and skin-colored, and some may appear mildly red and swollen. There is no tenderness, no rupture, and the patient has no subjective symptoms.

How to prevent vulvitis

1. Avoid unclean sexual intercourse, stay away from unsanitary people and environments, and keep yourself clean.

2. If ulcer or erosion occurs, be sure to change the dressing in time to avoid discomfort and irritation.

3. For acute vulvitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to prevent more serious infections.

4. If one of the spouses suffers from a sexual tissue disease, they should suspend sexual intercourse.

5. Male friends should develop good hygiene habits, pay attention to private hygiene at all times, insist on cleaning the glans and foreskin every day, and clean the smegma in time if the foreskin is too long.
