What is the symptom of fever in the glans penis?

For men, if the glans becomes hot, you should pay attention to it. The fever may cause redness, swelling, pain, congestion, urethral erosion, wounds, ulcers, etc. There are many reasons for this, the most common one is balanitis. In addition, if there is a local injury to the penis, it may also cause such symptoms.

(1) Balanitis. Balanitis can cause glans redness, swelling, pain, erosion, and purulent discharge. Therefore, the causes of glans itching and redness are mostly caused by balanitis.

(2) Including local trauma, friction, contraceptives, soaps and detergents and other irritations, which may manifest locally as redness, swelling, itching, erosion, exudation and even bleeding of the glans.

(3) Bacterial infection. Secondary bacterial infection can cause suppuration and form ulcers. The patient will experience obvious pain and difficulty in moving. Clinically, this is called acute superficial glansitis.

(1) Redness and swelling of the glans penis lead to balanitis sicca. Balanitis sicca is a more serious form of balanitis that damages the physiological structure of the foreskin and glans penis, affects sexual life and aesthetics, and is also a common cause of premature ejaculation.

(2) Redness and swelling of the glans penis can cause sexual dysfunction. The sensory nerves in the glans penis are in a sensitive period, and combined with the damage caused by inflammation, premature ejaculation is more likely to occur during sexual intercourse, which can lead to impotence in the long run.

(3) Redness and swelling of the glans penis can cause ascending infection of the urinary system. This is common in cystitis, nephritis, pyelonephritis, etc., especially in those who have not been cured for a long time. It is most likely to cause urinary system diseases. Improper treatment during the acute stage can be life-threatening.

(1) Pay attention to local hygiene and clean the glans penis and foreskin every day. If the foreskin is too long, it should be treated promptly and circumcised if necessary. It is also necessary to clean the smegma in time.

(2) If ulcers or erosions occur, the dressing should be changed promptly, twice a day, to avoid uncomfortable irritation.

(3) Suspend sexual activity and seek treatment promptly. If you have trichomonas infection or Candida albicans infection, both husband and wife should be treated at the same time.

(4) If it is caused by acute balanitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to prevent more serious infection.
