What is the cause of the rotten glans?

For us humans, the difference between men and women is also because of this. Men and women have different types of reproductive organs. Because of the different morphological characteristics, their functions are also different. For men, the glans penis is one of the most important reproductive organs. Therefore, we must pay attention to our own health in life. Then let's learn about what happens when the glans penis is rotten.

1. Rotting of the glans

Penis erosion is commonly caused by balanitis, which is the most common glans disease.

In the early stage of balanitis, the glans and foreskin surface are edematous, congested, and red. The area around the urethra is red and there are wounds and ulcers. It may develop into a superficial ulcer with purulent secretions. The patient will feel redness, itching or burning sensation on the glans, followed by pain. After ulceration, pus may flow and have a foul odor. In severe cases, there will also be fatigue, low fever, enlarged inguinal lymph nodes, and redness and tenderness of the glans. In addition, if it is candidal glans infection caused by fungus, it is often manifested by red mucosal erythema, local edema, smooth appearance, mild desquamation of the edge, and papules and small abscesses that expand around to form glans erosion. Recurrent candidal glans inflammation can cause foreskin dryness and cracking, fibrosis and sclerosis of the glans.

1. Western medicine: Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial; internal and external treatment. Erythromycin and tetracycline are the first choice for the treatment of acute superficial balanitis and annular effusive balanitis. Trichostatin or itraconazole is often used to treat balanitis caused by Candida albicans.

2. Traditional Chinese Medicine: There are three main types of disease: stagnation of toxic fire, damp-heat and worm-breeding, and liver-kidney yin deficiency. Different treatment methods are used according to different manifestations.

II. Measures

1. Pay attention to personal hygiene: wash the vulva and change underwear every day, and wash your own underwear separately.

2. Even family members should have their own basin and towel.

3. Sexual intercourse should be prohibited after your spouse becomes ill.

4. If the spouse only received physical therapy, although the visible condyloma acuminatum on the vulva disappeared, the patient still carried the HPV virus and should be re-examined after treatment. If sexual intercourse occurred during this period, condoms could be used for protection.

5. Avoid contact transmission: Do not use other people's underwear, swimsuits and bathtubs; do not wash in the basin in public baths, it is recommended to take a shower, do not sit directly on the bath seat after bathing, try to use squat toilets in public toilets; wash hands with soap before going to the toilet; do not swim in swimming pools with high density and poor disinfection.

6. Resolutely put an end to sexual promiscuity: 50% of patients are infected with the disease through sexual contact.

7. If one party in the family is infected from society, he or she may infect the spouse through sexual intercourse, and may also infect other family members through close contact, which not only brings physical pain, but also causes family discord and mental pressure. Therefore, improving sexual morality and not engaging in extramarital sex are important aspects of preventing the occurrence of genital warts.
