What is the cause of the itchy head?

Itching of the glans is a hidden topic among male friends. Because it is a private issue, they dare not go to the hospital for treatment, fearing that others will laugh at them, or because they are shy. In short, they just don't want to mention it in front of others. In fact, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. If it is a disease, it must be treated. Itching of the glans is a common symptom, and the cause of the pain must be clarified. If you can't even let go of this little face, you are not a man. So what is the reason for the itching of the glans?

It is balanitis, which can be caused by sexual intercourse and excessive foreskin. It can be caused by infection with Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Trichomonas, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, fungi, Gonorrhea or other bacteria; or due to excessive foreskin and insufficient cleaning, the dirt between the foreskin and the glans, that is, smegma, will accumulate, irritating the local foreskin and mucous membrane to cause inflammation. It is recommended to go to the infectious department for a clear diagnosis to facilitate timely symptomatic treatment.

The treatment of balanitis can be done by immersion in 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution and application of anti-inflammatory ointment. Allergic balanitis requires oral anti-allergic drugs and topical cortisone ointment. If the foreskin or foreskin is swollen and cannot be turned over for immersion, drainage is not smooth, and the inflammation still cannot subside after general treatment, dorsal circumcision can be performed to facilitate drainage. Circumcision can be performed after the inflammation completely subsides.

Prognosis and prevention: Clean the foreskin and glans penis frequently, and keep the foreskin cavity clean and dry. If the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, circumcision should be performed.

Warm reminder: When illness comes, whether it is an obvious illness or a hidden disease, you must go to a regular hospital, see a doctor, and receive timely treatment. Now gynecology and andrology are open to the public, not as conservative as before. Everyone will get sick, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. The most urgent task is to cure the disease. I remind everyone that if you have a headache, you must seek medical attention in time. I wish you good health.
