How to prevent fungal infection of the glans penis

Fungal infection of the glans penis can actually cause great harm to male reproductive health, and in modern life, many men are susceptible to this problem, so we need to understand the scientific treatment and care methods. Only by paying attention to these common sense issues can we better help men treat and prevent the harm caused by this reproductive disease.

General topical drugs such as econazole, bifenazolidone, ketoconazole, clotrimazole, ciclopirox and butenafine, etc., are given a full course of treatment (1 to 4 weeks), and the cure rate is over 90%. If the disease recurs or is widespread, it can be combined with oral drugs, and its effectiveness will be twice as effective with half the effort. Oral fluconazole 100~200mg/d each time, for 3 to 7 days, combined with local alkaline solution flushing (3% sodium bicarbonate). Such as the new generation and better 5% natamycin and naftifine eye drops, commonly used oral drugs are fluconazole, itraconazole, terbinafine, and if the condition is severe, intravenous drip of amphotericin B can also be used. The key is to pay attention to hygiene at ordinary times.

Prevention and care of balanitis

(1) Pay attention to local hygiene and clean the glans penis and foreskin daily. If the foreskin is too long, it should be treated promptly and circumcised if necessary. It is also necessary to clean the smegma in time.

(2) If one of the spouses suffers from a sexual organ disease, they should suspend sexual activity and seek timely treatment. For example, if the spouse suffers from a trichomonas infection or Candida albicans infection, both spouses should receive treatment at the same time.

(3) Avoid unclean sexual intercourse and keep yourself clean.

(4) If ulcers or erosions form, change the dressing immediately, twice a day, to avoid uncomfortable irritation.

(5) For acute balanitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to prevent more serious infection.

In fact, everyone should not ignore their own reproductive health issues, because the impact and harm it causes to us are relatively serious. If we do not pay attention to scientific care and health care in daily life, and do not adopt scientific treatment methods, the situation will become more serious and endanger our health.
