What is the reason for the small red spot on the glans?

We all know that men are generally careless and never pay attention to some subtle changes in their bodies in life. Many men have small red spots on their glans. Sometimes they don’t pay much attention to it at the beginning, but when it becomes extremely itchy in the later stage, many men are always at a loss. Sometimes in some situations, many men feel uneasy, but they can’t use their hands to pinch it. When such symptoms occur, we must understand the reasons and make timely adjustments. Let’s understand what the small red spots on the glans are.

What is the reason for the small red spot on the glans?

Small red spots on the glans are typical symptoms of balanitis, which 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 to irritate the foreskin and glans penis when the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, causing balanitis.

treatment

1. Symptom treatment

Keep the area clean and avoid all kinds of stimulation. Those with prepuce that is too long should undergo circumcision.

2. Local treatment

For those with erosive exudation or purulent secretions, apply wet compresses with 1% ethacridine solution or 1:8000 potassium permanganate solution. For those with dryness and desquamation, apply corticosteroid ointment externally.

3. Etiology treatment

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, and ketoconazole can be used. For trichomonal glansitis, metronidazole, tinidazole, and trichostatin can be used. For amebic glansitis, emetine, 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.

The above is an introduction to what the small red dots on the glans are. After understanding it, we know that such symptoms are generally caused by glansitis, so male friends must pay special attention in daily life. First of all, they must pay attention to personal hygiene. In addition, they must wear loose and comfortable pants, and try not to have sex during the illness. If necessary, they must go to a regular specialist hospital for examination and treatment.
