What is the reason for the two red spots on the glans?

Many male friends may often find red spots on their glans, but most of them don’t know what causes this. Generally speaking, such symptoms are caused by glansitis. The causes of glansitis are relatively complex, and the onset of the disease is also very complicated. Let me explain the specific reasons to you below.

What are the causes of glansitis in men?

1. Suffering from prepuce that is too long or phimosis: The glans penis of a person with prepuce that is too long is usually always wrapped in the foreskin, and must be turned up by hand to be exposed; even with the help of hands, the foreskin of a person with phimosis cannot be turned up to expose the glans penis. In this case, smegma is more likely to accumulate in the foreskin, and it is difficult to remove. Therefore, it is not surprising that patients with prepuce that is too long or phimosis often suffer from balanitis.

2. Not paying attention to external genital hygiene: The sebaceous glands of the foreskin of young men often secrete more vigorously. If you do not pay attention to regular cleaning of the external genitals, or do not turn the foreskin up when cleaning, the secretions of the sebaceous glands of the foreskin will accumulate under the foreskin, forming smegma that looks like tofu dregs. Smegma is a good culture medium for bacteria, and it is easy to induce balanitis if it is not removed in time.

3. Injury caused by masturbation: Young people have strong sexual desire and cannot avoid masturbation. Sometimes masturbation is too rough, which can cause varying degrees of foreskin damage. Because of the high excitement during masturbation, the damage is relatively small and may not be noticed, but the wound on the foreskin is very susceptible to bacterial contamination, thus inducing balanitis.

Those with clear etiology should be treated with corresponding drugs. For example, for candidal glansitis, topical nystatin cream, clotrimazole, econazole, miconazole cream or oral antifungal drugs such as itraconazole, fluconazole, miconazole, ketoconazole can be used. For trichomonal glansitis, metronidazole, tinidazole, and trichostatin can be used. For amebic glansitis, emetine, oral metronidazole, and tinidazole are given. If the spouse suffers from candidal vaginitis or trichomonal vaginitis at the same time, they must be treated at the same time.

Some infectious factors can cause glansitis, such as trichomonas infection, and it is also closely related to men's personal hygiene. For example, if a man's foreskin is too long, it is easy for bacteria to grow and cause glansitis. Therefore, male friends must pay attention to cleaning their genitals on a regular basis.
