Introduction to the symptoms of fungal balanitis

I believe that many young men often feel erythema, swelling, fever, erosion, and exudation of the penis. In severe cases, blisters and pustules may appear. This is likely to be caused by fungal balanitis. This disease not only brings inconvenience to our daily life, but also seriously affects the couple's life. Therefore, if we have the above symptoms, we must treat them in time and never leave them untreated. Next, I will introduce the symptoms and treatment methods of fungal balanitis.

Fungal glansitis is more common in young people between the ages of 20 and 50. Due to the vigorous secretion of sebaceous glands in young people, the vulva is moist, and wearing thicker underwear or insufficient cleaning of the vulva can easily cause fungi scattered in the air or parasitic here to take root and sprout, causing trouble and possibly passing it on to the spouse. Many young and middle-aged women often wash their vaginas due to changes in their own physical constitution, taking antibiotics and other drugs, or excessive cleanliness, causing changes in the acid-base environment in the vagina, causing the parasitic bacteria that normally restrain each other to be out of balance, and the fungi (molds) parasitic here take advantage of the opportunity to enter, causing inflammation of the patient's vulva and vagina. After sex, it is very likely to be passed on to the spouse, causing fungal glansitis.

Symptoms

1. Itching and burning of the glans penis and penis skin are the most prominent symptoms of this disease.

2. The glans penis, coronal sulcus and inner foreskin are red and swollen, with scattered red papules.

3. Sticky white dirt resembling tofu dregs can be seen on the glans penis, inner foreskin, and coronal sulcus.

4. When the scrotum is infected, the skin of the scrotum may become red and scaly. It may also be accompanied by itching and pain, which may be aggravated by washing with soapy water.

5. Urinary tract infection may cause urinary pain, frequent urination, urgency, burning and itching in the urethra.

Disease treatment

1. Use saline or 0.1% Levanol rinse to clean the glans penis and foreskin to remove dirt.

2. Soak the foreskin and glans penis in 2% sodium bicarbonate solution.

3. Apply Pifukang lotion to the head of the penis 1-2 times a day.

4. Apply antifungal ointment, such as clotrimazole ointment or Fulchi ointment.

5. If urethral irritation occurs, nystatin 1 million units can be taken orally 3 times a day. Or fluconazole 400 mg per day for 5 consecutive days.

6. Erythromycin.

6Warm TipsEdit

1. Pay attention to local hygiene, clean the glans and foreskin every day. If the foreskin is too long, it should be treated in time and circumcision should be performed if necessary. It is very 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 trichomonas or Candida albicans infection, both spouses should receive treatment at the same time.

3. Avoid unclean sexual intercourse and keep yourself clean.

4. If ulcer or erosion occurs, change the dressing in time, twice a day, to avoid uncomfortable irritation.

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

Through the above introduction, everyone must have some understanding of fungal balanoposthitis. The above article also analyzes the causes of fungal balanoposthitis in detail. If your symptoms are more serious, I still recommend that you go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the disease. Because taking good care of yourself is not only responsible for yourself but also for your family. Of course, the most important thing is to take good protection.
