What are the red spots on the glans?

As the weather gets hotter, many men will gradually find small red dots on their glans, which feel painful and itchy. The obvious symptoms make us feel irritated and uncomfortable. Some people have used a lot of medications to treat it and found that it always comes and goes. In fact, these are all very normal conditions. It is inevitable that this is the case. In the next article, the editor will introduce the red dots on the glans. What should we do?

This is common glansitis. Inflammation of the glans mucosa is called glansitis. This disease can be caused by various pathogens, local irritation and other factors. Balanitis refers to inflammation of the inner plate of the foreskin and the glans penis. A lipid substance secreted in the normal foreskin cavity can accumulate into smegma to irritate the foreskin and glans penis when the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, causing balanitis.

Balanitis caused by drug allergy is a delayed allergic reaction, which is quite common in clinical practice and usually occurs 24 to 72 hours after taking the drug.

1. The affected area is erythematous, swollen, eroded, and exuded; the patient feels pain and itching.

2. It is mostly caused by stimulation from friction, condoms (medicine), detergents, etc.

2. Candidal glansitis

1. Early flushing, with pinpoint-sized red papules scattered on the surface, covered with dot-like cheese-like secretions and pustules, and erosion and exudation in severe cases.

2. Direct microscopic examination of secretions revealed Candida spores and hyphae.

3. Patients often use broad-spectrum antibiotics or corticosteroids for a long time, or suffer from diabetes.

3. Trichomonas glansitis

1. The affected area is erythematous and papules, which gradually expand and have blisters on the surface, followed by erosion and exudation.

2. Trichomonas is found in the secretions. Causes of glansitis (1) Non-infectious factors

Including local trauma, friction, contraceptives, soap and detergents and other irritants, local manifestations may be edema erythema, erosion, exudation and even bleeding. If secondary bacterial infection occurs, it may become purulent and form an ulcer. The patient has obvious pain and difficulty in movement. Clinically, it is called acute superficial glansitis.

In fact, as the weather gets hotter, many people have physiological problems. Men are more likely to suffer from bacterial infections caused by sweating, so they need to pay attention to disinfection and hygiene treatment. So generally speaking, it has a great impact on the body.
