How long does it take for glans inflammation to heal with potassium permanganate?

How to treat balanitis? With the increasing number of people infected with balanitis, we need to go to the hospital to treat it when we find it, and do a good job of post-treatment medical care. Good medical care is auxiliary treatment, which can help us effectively recover from balanitis. So, how should we treat it? How long does it take for balanitis to be cured with potassium permanganate solution?

It is recommended to use potassium permanganate solution to clean the glans penis 2 to 3 times a day. Potassium permanganate solution has strong oxidizing properties, so it also has certain disinfection and sterilization effects. It is generally recommended to prepare it at a ratio of 1:5000, which is about dark red. Potassium permanganate solution cannot be prepared to produce a dark red color, because if the concentration is too high, it will be corrosive. Potassium permanganate solution can generally be used to treat balanitis, or other types of balanitis, such as fungal balanitis.

First, the concentration of potassium permanganate solution must be accurately controlled. Too high a concentration can cause partial burning, erosion or rupture. In clinical medicine, there are quite a few such samples where patients have burned the male genital skin because they often use potassium permanganate solution with a high concentration at home. Potassium permanganate solution purchased in a pharmacy is generally in the form of granules or tablets, which need to be diluted with water. The concentration of potassium permanganate solution is different, and its main use is also different. When treating balanitis, the common concentration is one to five thousand, that is, one part potassium permanganate solution to five thousand parts of water. How to actually control it depends on the preparer. In daily life, after putting potassium permanganate powder into water, the water will have a slight red color. The water color should not be too red, which means the concentration is too high. Excessive concentration will cause annular damage to the mucous membrane of the inner layer of the foreskin and the glans penis, because the skin and mucous membrane of the inner layer of the foreskin and the glans penis are very delicate and can be easily damaged by the high concentration of potassium permanganate solution.

Second, the time must be taken into consideration when preparing the solution. Since potassium permanganate solution releases oxygen at a relatively slow rate, the soaking time must be more than five minutes to kill the bacteria. Therefore, clinical medicine stipulates that the soaking time of potassium permanganate solution is generally around fifteen minutes. Third, the temperature should not be too high, otherwise the potassium permanganate solution will be ineffective.

How to treat glansitis?

1. In the treatment of glansitis, attention should be paid to clean hygiene, keeping the reproductive organs clean and dry, and strictly prohibiting sexual intercourse, because sexual intercourse may infect the virus to the other party and continue to infect other parts of the body.

2. Pay attention to the cleaning of underwear. It is best to wash your underwear by hand with a mild soap. Do not use strong soap powder or a fully automatic washing machine.

3. Choose the right underwear material: Please wear pure cotton underwear, and try not to wear polyester or synthetic fiber materials to maintain ventilation and breathability. Therefore, jeans should be worn less, and women should wear skirts or trousers more often.

4. The diet needs to be changed to improve immunity, eat more vegetables and fruits, drink plenty of water, and exercise at the same time. To avoid frequent fungal infections, eat less starchy foods, seafood, sugars, and irritating foods such as wine and chili peppers.

5. For the local medical treatment of glansitis, attention should be paid to keeping it clean and dry to prevent secondary infection. Do not use other people's basins and swimwear. Wash hands and disinfect before urinating. When someone in the family suffers from glansitis, the patient's underwear, sheets and items contaminated by the patient's excrement can be disinfected by burning or soaking in disinfectants.
