There are red particles on the glans of a boy

Red particles on a boy's glans may be a symptom of balanitis or genital warts. Balanitis is caused by men not paying attention to penile hygiene, which leads to bacterial or fungal infection of the glans, causing redness, swelling and itching of the glans, while genital warts are caused by unclean sexual life and are a highly contagious disease that requires men to take anti-inflammatory drugs in time for treatment.

What are the red particles on the glans?

The glans is an important part of the male reproductive organ and plays an important role. However, the glans is also a place where diseases often occur. It can be easily invaded by diseases. If a male has red rice-sized particles on his glans, it is mostly caused by diseases. If a male has this condition, it is likely caused by balanitis.

Balanitis is a common reproductive infection in men's outpatient clinics. Balanitis refers to inflammation of the inner layer of the foreskin and the glans penis. The main symptoms are redness and swelling of the foreskin, burning pain, aggravation during urination, and purulent secretions flowing out of the urethra. If the foreskin is turned over, it can be seen that the inner layer of the foreskin and the glans penis are congested and swollen. In severe cases, there may be shallow ulcers or erosions, pus on the surface, and even a foul odor.

What should you pay attention to when you have balanoposthitis?

The first point: it is easy to be neglected and not treated. Due to the high incidence of balanitis, mild initial symptoms, and intermittent improvement and deterioration, it is easy to be neglected in daily life. By the time balanitis becomes serious and is treated, it is already accompanied by complications and comorbidities, causing great damage to the reproductive health system. Therefore, early detection and treatment are necessary.

The second point: it is difficult to cure due to indiscriminate use of drugs. The course of balanitis is long. Due to the irregular use and abuse of antibiotics, the bacteria are prone to drug resistance, making traditional treatments unable to achieve the desired effect. The disease recurs, leading to long-term chronic inflammation, triggering prostatitis, impotence, and premature ejaculation, making the disease more difficult to treat.

The third point: Misdiagnosis and mistreatment of STDs. When glansitis occurs, most patients think it is a STD and use topical disinfectants and anti-inflammatory drugs on their own, which causes strong chemical stimulation to the local skin, resulting in redness, swelling, and exudation, which aggravates the inflammatory reaction and eventually leads to chronic glansitis, causing great harm to the patient's body.

Fourth point: The foreskin is too long and not treated. The foreskin is too long and is also the reason why balanitis recurs and fails to heal. If the foreskin is not treated, bacteria and inflammatory secretions can easily hide and directly act on the lesion site or new tissue structure with the foreskin to aggravate the condition. Therefore, if the foreskin is too long, it needs to be treated as soon as possible.

Experts remind: If you have a disease, you need to go to a regular hospital for relevant examinations and find out the cause before considering specific medication. Blindly believing in folk remedies will only make the condition worse.
