White discharge from the glans penis

Although male sexual organs are not as open as female ones and are not easily invaded by bacteria, if the male foreskin is too long, it is possible for dirt to harbour. When men feel itching in their genitals, they should also pay attention to cleanliness and go to the hospital for examination if necessary. If there is white secretion discharged from the glans penis of men, what is the cause of this?

1. Balanitis: There are two reasons for balanitis. One is that if the foreskin is too long and the foreskin is phimosis, local hygiene is not taken care of, so that secretions such as urine and semen remain in the foreskin cavity, forming white secretion-like smegma. Since smegma is very irritating, long-term irritation to the glans can easily lead to balanitis. Another reason is that after unclean sex, the penis is infected with bacteria and viruses such as trichomonas, candida albicans, and fungi, which can easily lead to balanitis.

2. Gonorrheal urethritis: Gonorrheal urethritis is one of the sexually transmitted diseases. It is mainly caused by infection with Neisseria gonorrhoeae during unclean sex. Gonorrheal urethritis is highly contagious. In the early stage of the disease, the urethra, glans penis, and penis will feel itchy and painful. The urethral opening will become red and swollen, and white secretions will flow out. Because gonorrhea is relatively special, the symptoms may disappear on their own, but the symptoms will worsen if they recur, and various complications will also occur. Therefore, you should not be careless after the symptoms appear, and you need to go to the hospital as soon as possible.

3. Non-gonococcal urethritis: Non-gonococcal urethritis is one of the sexually transmitted diseases. It is mainly caused by gonococci during unclean sex, as well as Chlamydia trachomatis and Mycoplasma. The symptoms of non-gonococcal urethritis and gonococcal urethritis are very similar, but the symptoms of non-gonococcal urethritis are milder than those of gonococcal urethritis. The incidence of non-gonococcal urethritis is higher than that of gonococcal urethritis. Unlike the symptoms of gonococcal urethritis, the urethra will feel itchy, and there will be difficulty in urination such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain. A small amount of sticky secretions will appear after not urinating for a long time or before the first urination in the morning.

In addition to the above diseases that can cause white discharge from the glans penis, there may also be prostatitis, genital herpes and other diseases that can cause white discharge in the later stages. You should go to a specialist hospital for a detailed examination and targeted treatment to determine which disease you have, so as to improve your condition in a short period of time.

Health care methods for male glans

1. Pay attention to personal hygiene. When bathing, be sure to clean the glans penis and foreskin, and clean the smegma in time. If the foreskin is found to be too long or phimosis, circumcision should be performed to avoid causing other inflammations.

2. Avoid unclean sexual behavior and keep yourself clean to avoid contracting sexually transmitted diseases.

3. When cleaning the genitals, use a mild detergent and warm water to clean the lower body. After cleaning, wipe off the moisture on the body surface with a soft dry towel to avoid bacterial growth in the genitals.

4. Avoid wearing tight pants. Tight pants will affect the heat dissipation of the genitals and may cause inflammation.
