How to treat infectious balanitis

Balanitis is a disease that occurs in many men, mainly caused by various bacterial or fungal infections. The treatment methods for balanitis caused by different causes are also different, and many men usually blindly treat it, resulting in repeated occurrence of balanitis, which is extremely harmful. So, how to treat infectious balanitis? Let's take a detailed look at the treatment of infectious balanitis.

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 smegma when the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, which can irritate the foreskin and glans penis and cause balanitis. This disease can also be caused by bacterial or fungal infection or drug allergy.

1. For trichomoniasis, the glans penis and inner foreskin can be rinsed with 0.5% to 1% lactic acid solution, 0.5% acetic acid solution or 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution.

2. For balanitis caused by bacterial infection, you can use 200 mL of 3% boric acid water or 0.1% revnol solution to wash the affected area twice a day for 20 minutes each time.

3. Dandelion wash: Take 30g of dandelion, 30g of wild chrysanthemum, and 10g of alum, decoct them in water and use them to wash the affected area once a day, each time for about 20 minutes.

4. For candidal balanitis, you can use baking soda solution to clean the affected area or apply imidazole ointment such as Daknin ointment, clotrimazole ointment, etc.

5. The main ingredient of Qingdai powder is indigo. Take an appropriate amount of Qingdai powder, add a little water, mix into a paste, apply to the affected area, and change the dressing once a day.

Patients should be clear about how to treat infectious balanitis. Infectious balanitis is neither serious nor not serious, but because of its sensitive location and important reproductive and urinary organs, if the symptoms are not resolved in time, it may induce other symptoms and even affect the normal reproduction of men. We must pay enough attention to it.
