What to do if the penis smells fishy

The penis is a very important reproductive organ and sexual organ for men. If there is a problem with the penis, it will have very serious consequences. A normal penis has no smell, but some men's penises have a fishy smell. If it persists, it should be taken seriously. So, what should we do if the penis has a fishy smell? Let's take a look below.

If the penis has a strange smell, it is more likely to be caused by local infection. Observe whether there is redness, swelling, exudation, and itching. It is recommended to wash it with warm water every night, change the underwear every day, expose it to the sun, and observe for 1-2 weeks.

If the symptoms can be improved, there is no need for medication. If necessary, you can go to the hospital's urology department for treatment. You can also choose to use 1:5000 potassium permanganate powder for external washing or sitz bathing, and it is best to use Daknin ointment for external use, which can play a therapeutic role. The normal course of the disease takes 1-2 weeks. Before the disease is cured, it is best not to choose to have sex, which is easy to cause cross infection.

How do men clean their private parts?

1. Wash with warm water

If the male is not inflamed, please use warm water to clean the private parts and gently wipe the testicles and scrotum. When cleaning, the foreskin should be completely turned over so that the smegma inside can be thoroughly cleaned, but pay attention to the water temperature, which should not be too high. Try to control the temperature below 40°C, which you can accept.

2. Less chemical cleaning

Try not to use shower gel and soap to clean your private parts, because the skin on the male glans is very fragile, sensitive to chemicals, and prone to allergies.

3. Wash separately

Even in the cold winter, you should develop a good habit of cleaning the outside world every day. In addition, it is recommended that men's faces, buttocks and feet be washed in different basins. Since the bacteria in each part are different, if the same basin and the same towel are used, it may cause cross-infection of bacteria, which may lead to various diseases.

4. Dry and dry in time

If the private parts are not dried in time after cleaning, the private parts will be in a moist environment, which provides good conditions for the growth and reproduction of bacteria, so they should be dried in time after washing.
