What should I do if I have itchy bumps at the base of my penis?

Many male friends often feel different degrees of discomfort in the penis. The most obvious is the itching of the penis. Sometimes there will be some small red bumps. These are some common manifestations of male diseases. At this time, it is best to go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible to see which specific male disease is causing it, so that targeted treatment can be carried out better.

1. Anti-HSV drugs

Acyclic guanosine is a recognized effective drug:

1. Primary and initial infection: ACV 200 mg, 5 times a day, for 7 consecutive days; or ACV 5 mg/kg, intravenous injection according to body weight, once every 8 hours, for 5-7 consecutive days.

2. In case of recurrent infection, ACV 200 mg, 5 times a day, for 5 consecutive days, or ACV 800 mg, 2 times a day, for 5 consecutive days; if treatment is started at the beginning of prodromal symptoms or within 2 days after the onset of damage, it may be effective for some patients

3. When relapses are frequent: ACV 200mg, 3 times a day, can be taken continuously for 6-12 months. In patients with frequent relapses (>6 times a year), daily treatment can reduce the number of relapses by at least 75%. It has been confirmed to be safe and effective in people who have received treatment for up to 3 years. ACV-resistant HSV strains have been isolated from the treated population, but no patients with normal immune function have failed treatment. The drug should be discontinued after 1 year of treatment so that the patient's relapse rate can be re-evaluated.

4. Immunosuppressed patients: Acute patients with first or recurrent disease: intravenous injection of ACV (5mg/kg/8h) or oral administration of ACV 400mg × 4 times/day for 7-10 days; relapse suppression: daily intravenous injection of ACV (5mg/kg/8h) or oral administration of ACV (400mg × 3-5 times/day) can prevent relapse.

5. For HSV proctitis, ACV 400 mg, 5 times a day, can shorten the course of the disease. For patients with immunosuppression or severe symptoms, ACV 5 mg/kg/8 hours can be injected intravenously.

6. HIV infection: Patients need to take ACV intermittently or daily for suppressive therapy. Increasing the ACV dose is very beneficial for patients with HIV infection.

Male friends who often feel itching in the genitals must pay attention to the hygiene of their private parts. They can wash them with warm water before going to bed every day, change their underwear frequently, and pay attention to the cleaning and disinfection of underwear. Underwear should be exposed to the sun as much as possible, so that a large number of viruses or bacteria can be killed.
