What's going on if there's a small red bump on the glans?

The male reproductive organs are exposed to the outside, so sometimes they don't pay much attention to the hygiene and cleanliness of the reproductive organs. Some men feel itchy penises, and later found that it was a small red bump on the glans. These men are scared of a small red bump on their own vitals, so why does a small red bump grow on the glans? How can we treat it? The following editor will help you solve your problems and explain the reasons.

This should be balanitis or genital herpes

Balanitis:

Many patients develop red spots or small papules on the glans of the penis and suspect that they have a sexually transmitted disease. When they go to the doctor, they find out that it is balanoposthitis (glanvical balanitis). In fact, balanoposthitis is a common disease. Balanoposthitis is divided into balanoposthitis and glansitis. Because they often appear at the same time, it is called balanoposthitis.

This inflammation can be infectious or non-infectious. Infectious phimosis is more common in clinical practice. Infectious phimosis is often caused by unclean sexual intercourse, infection with Candida albicans, Trichomonas, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, Gonorrhea or other bacteria; non-infectious factors are mostly due to excessive foreskin and insufficient cleaning, and the unclean matter between the foreskin and the glans, that is, smegma, will accumulate, irritating the local foreskin and mucous membrane to cause inflammation.

(1) Pay attention to local hygiene, clean the glans and foreskin every day. If the foreskin is too long, it should be treated in time. If necessary, circumcision should be performed. It is necessary to clean the smegma in time. (2) If one of the spouses suffers from a sexual organ disease, sexual life should be suspended and treatment should be sought in time. For example, if the spouse suffers from trichomonas or Candida albicans infection, the couple should be treated at the same time.

(3) Avoid unclean sexual intercourse and keep yourself clean. (4) If ulcers or erosions are formed, change the dressing in time, twice a day, to avoid uncomfortable stimulation. (5) For acute balanitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to avoid causing more serious infections.
