What causes penile ulcers? Men should stay away from these pathogenic factors

Penile ulcer is a common disease among men. Many men have suffered from penile rupture, erosion, itching and pain. But what causes penile ulcer? Most men don't know much about it. In fact, there are two causes of penile ulcer. The first is caused by simple or non-infectious factors.

1. Causes of Penile Ulcers

Clinically, phimosis of the glans penis is manifested by pimples, redness, swelling, burning pain, aggravated during urination, and purulent secretions flowing out of the foreskin opening. If the foreskin is turned over, the inner plate of the foreskin and the glans penis can be seen to be congested and swollen. In severe cases, there may be shallow ulcers or erosions, with pus.

Experts say that balanitis is caused by pathogens formed by smegma and unclean sexual life, which irritate the foreskin and glans mucosa. This inflammation of the foreskin inner plate and glans penis can be caused by various pathogens, smegma irritation and other factors.

1. Simple or non-infectious factors;

2. Infectious or contagious diseases. The former, except for physiological phimosis, excessive foreskin, after sexual maturity, smegma stimulation or a few mechanical injury factors, cause the glans to become red, swollen and hot. The latter, except for balanitis caused by infectious factors, is balanitis caused by pathogenic microorganisms as the main factor, among which bacterial and fungal infections are the most common.

2. Prevention of Penile Ulcers

1. Clean the foreskin and glans penis frequently to keep the foreskin cavity clean and dry. If the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, circumcision should be performed.

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 trichomonas or Candida albicans infection, both spouses should receive treatment at the same time.

3. Avoid unclean sexual intercourse and keep yourself clean.

4. If ulcer or erosion occurs, change the dressing in time, twice a day, to avoid uncomfortable irritation.

5. For acute balanitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to avoid causing more serious infections.

6. It is better to have a fixed sexual partner. If you like to change sexual partners, you may be easily infected with diseases by accident.

7. Get rid of bad habits, such as smoking, drinking, staying up late and eating spicy food.

8. Keep yourself clean and don't pursue one-night stands in KTV or outside, or short-term stimulating life, as it is easy to get sexually transmitted diseases or glansitis.

9. For acute balanitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to prevent more serious infection.

10. When receiving care and medication under medical instructions, do not randomly prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs to prevent the condition from becoming uncontrollable.
