The glans penis is red and swollen with white pus

Balanitis refers to inflammation of the inner layer of the foreskin and the glans penis. A lipid substance secreted in the normal foreskin cavity can accumulate into urine scale when the foreskin is long or too long, irritating the foreskin and the glans penis to cause balanitis. The disease can also be caused by bacteria, bacterial infection or drug allergy. Red and swollen glans penis with milky white pustules indicates that the patient has this symptom.

If there are pustules on the glans, it may be an infection of the glans. It may be a common bacterial infection, syphilis infection, or it may be that the foreskin is too long to cover the glans, causing the foreskin to become purulent. It is recommended to go to the urology and men's department of a regular hospital for medical treatment. The doctor can make an analytical judgment based on visual inspection. If the glans is red and has thick fluid, it may be glansitis; if there are ulcer-like changes and pus on the glans, it may be syphilis. It is recommended to use the secretion from the glans for bacterial testing, and also to do a syphilis serological test, so that a reasonable diagnosis can be made. You must pay attention to hygiene in your daily life, avoid unclean sex, diagnose the symptoms, and then carry out reasonable treatment.

In addition, what foods are not suitable for balanitis?

1. Avoid fishy and irritating foods, seafood and seafood, which will aggravate the spread of inflammation and worsen the condition. For example, yellow croaker, squid, carp, shrimp, crab and other seafood can promote cold and dampness, which can aggravate the condition and are not conducive to the dissipation of inflammation, so they should be avoided.

2. Avoid eating spicy food. Spicy food such as chili pepper, amaranth, mustard sauce, etc. can stimulate the local glans inflammation to expand and should be avoided. Obvious seasonings such as chili powder, white pepper, instant coffee, etc., are not conducive to the recovery of inflammation.

3. Smoking can aggravate phimosis because the tar in cigarettes can weaken the binding of arteries and veins with oxygen. Alcohol can promote cold and dampness, so it should be avoided.

4. Patients with phimosis should avoid spicy and warm foods. Spicy and warm foods such as copper pot hot pot meat, halved pork head meat, mutton, etc. will aggravate the symptoms of phimosis.

The above is a detailed introduction to the various aspects that patients with balanoposthitis should pay attention to in their diet. Balanoposthitis has a high incidence rate, and the main symptoms are relatively mild and intermittent, so it is very easy to be ignored in daily life until it becomes more serious and needs medical treatment. Therefore, if you find that the foreskin is too long or the glans penis is abnormal when taking a bath, you must check and treat it early.
