What to do if the glans penis is scratched

The glans is a private part of men and an important part of men's sexual life. In addition, the glans is a relatively fragile part. A little friction will cause injury to the glans. After the glans is injured, it needs to be relieved in a certain way, otherwise the wound is likely to continue to worsen. Below, we will introduce in detail the treatment methods for glans abrasions.

You can take some anti-inflammatory drugs such as ofloxacin. Strictly disinfect, buy iodine tincture and Yunnan Baiyao powder, first use a cotton swab dipped in iodine to scrub the injured area, then sprinkle Yunnan Baiyao powder, use 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for local washing, and pay attention to maintaining local hygiene.

The glans is also called the glans penis. It refers to the spherical object at the front of the penis. It is formed by the expansion of the front end of the urethral cavernous body. There is a urethral opening at the end of the front end, which is the common outlet for urine and semen. The penis can be divided into the glans penis, the body of the penis, and the root of the penis from front to back. For men with excessive foreskin, the foreskin must be pulled down to see the glans penis. If the foreskin of an adult cannot be pulled down to reveal the glans penis, this is usually called phimosis, and a circumcision surgery needs to be performed in a regular hospital. The area near the coronal sulcus of the glans penis is a place where dirt and filth are hidden. After urination, the residual urine will accumulate between the glans penis and the foreskin, allowing the substances in the urine to precipitate, bacteria and fungi to multiply, and a large amount of urine scale will be produced, which is concentrated in the coronal sulcus. Generally speaking, urine stains should be cleaned once a day or two to avoid inflammation. The glans penis and foreskin must be cleaned before sexual intercourse.

(1) Pay attention to local hygiene, clean the glans and foreskin every day. If the foreskin is too long, it should be treated in time, and circumcision should be performed if necessary. It is very necessary to clean the smegma in time. For those whose foreskin always covers the glans when the penis is not erect, they should exercise so that the glans is always exposed outside the foreskin. This is hygienic and less likely to cause glansitis. It can also exercise the glans's resistance to friction, reduce sensitivity, and effectively prevent premature ejaculation during sexual intercourse with women.

(2) If one of the spouses suffers from a sexual organ disease, they should suspend sexual activity and seek timely treatment. For example, if the spouse suffers from a trichomonas infection or Candida albicans infection, both spouses should receive treatment at the same time.

(3) Avoid unclean sexual intercourse and keep yourself clean.

(4) If ulcers or erosions form, change the dressing immediately, twice a day, to avoid uncomfortable irritation.

(5) For acute balanitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to prevent more serious infection.

(6) Avoid promiscuity.
