What's going on with all the red spots on the glans?

I wonder if male friends have ever experienced this situation? That is, the glans penis is covered with red spots. Many people are actually very panicked when they see this situation. They don’t know what is going on, and they don’t know how to treat it, so they will be very scared, afraid that they have some kind of disease. Today I want to introduce to you what is going on when red spots grow on the glans penis.

(1) Acute superficial glansitis: At the onset, there is local redness, redness and swelling of the penis skin, and a burning and itching sensation in the glans. The inner surface of the foreskin and the glans may be congested and eroded, with exudate and even bleeding. After secondary infection, small ulcers may be seen, with a foul-smelling milky white purulent discharge.

(2) Annular ulcerated glans: Erythema can be seen on the glans and foreskin, which gradually expands and becomes ring-shaped, and may form a superficial ulcer surface.

(3) Candida albicans balanitis: Erythema can be seen on the foreskin and glans, with a smooth surface and small blisters. The edges of the erythema are clear, and there are erosions and exudates during acute attacks.

(4) Trichomonas galactitis: papules and erythema appear on the glans penis, gradually enlarging with clear edges. Small blisters the size of a needle can be seen on the erythema.

Check:

The diagnosis of balanitis includes direct microscopy, staining examination, separation and culture, laboratory tests, Candida antibody tests, etc. Patients should cooperate with doctors to complete these related tests so as to clarify the cause and carry out standardized and effective treatment.

Under direct microscopy, groups of oval spores and pseudohyphae can be seen. If more pseudohyphae are found, it means that Candida is in the pathogenic stage. Gram staining, Congo red staining or PAS staining can also be used clinically for microscopic examination, and the positive rate is higher than that of direct microscopy.

The above introduces some treatments for red spots on the glans, as well as some related symptoms. With some basic understanding, you don't have to feel flustered when you encounter this situation. We can treat it in a targeted way, so that we can better solve this situation. If there is an abnormality in the body, it needs to be treated as soon as possible.
