What is the reason for the red spots on the penis?

The health of the genitals is related to the happiness of our family, so people have always attached great importance to the problem of genitals. Only when the genitals are healthy can the family and oneself be happy. Some people have the symptom of red spots on the penis, and they don’t know what’s going on. They think they have sexually transmitted diseases, etc., which makes them very nervous. So, what’s the matter with red spots on the penis?

Glanitis can be caused by many factors, such as local physical stimulation (trauma, friction, contraceptive devices, detergents, urine, etc.), foreskin is too long, phimosis, smegma stimulation, various infections (bacteria, fungi, amoeba, trichomonas, etc.) and drug allergy.

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.

From the above introduction, the symptom of red spots on the penis is a symptom of phimosis or glansitis. It does not seem to be as scary as some people think, and it is not a sexually transmitted disease that destroys families. Therefore, patients do not need to worry too much about this problem. The genitals are part of the body and are not protected. This is of course a place where diseases are prone to occur.
