Acne on men's genitals

Many men have acne in their genitals. This part is more obscure to describe, unlike the frequent facial acne during adolescence, which is intuitive to understand. Patients are not very willing to seek medical treatment, so delaying treatment leads to other problems. Acne is mostly caused by infection, endocrine disorders, frequent consumption of spicy and irritating foods, or irregular sleep and exercise. You need to pay more attention to personal hygiene and cleanliness and have a regular lifestyle.

It is often considered to be a skin infection, secondary blockage of hair follicles, or pearly rash or papules. First of all, wash it every day and maintain local hygiene. Go to a professional dermatology and venereology department to check the exfoliated cells on it, do bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test, so that targeted medication can be used, which is safer and more reliable.

Balanitis is inflammation of the glans penis, which refers to inflammation of the glans penis caused by trauma, irritation or infection. Since glans inflammation often coexists with inflammation of the inner foreskin, glans inflammation and balanoposthitis are usually collectively referred to as balanoposthitis. The main clinical manifestations are local redness, swelling, erosion and ulcer formation. Balanitis can retrogradely infect the urinary system, causing cystitis, pyelonephritis, etc. In addition, if the inflammation is not cured for a long time, it can directly affect sexual life, leading to impotence, premature ejaculation and other phenomena. This disease is more common in summer and autumn, and mostly occurs in middle-aged and young men, especially those with prepuce or phimosis.

Balanitis is related to many factors, which can be divided into infectious factors and non-infectious factors. Under normal circumstances, a large number of bacteria, yeasts and spirochetes can parasitize in the foreskin sac, and when local or systemic resistance is weakened, these microorganisms can become pathogenic pathogens. Balanitis is mainly caused by bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, followed by Candida, Trichomonas, Mycoplasma, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, etc. can also cause balanitis.

Non-infectious factors include stimulation from urine, alkaline substances (such as detergents) and foreign substances (such as condoms); friction and trauma; excessive foreskin and insufficient cleaning leading to accumulation of smegma, which can cause damage to the glans foreskin mucosa and aggravate infection by various pathogens.
