Treatment of male pearly rash

Most people don't know what male pearly rash is. In fact, it is a rash on the male penis, mainly caused by foreskin being too long. This rash actually has no significant impact on health and is not contagious. There are currently three main treatment methods for pearly rash: laser therapy, cryotherapy, and drug therapy. Each of the three methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, and patients can choose the treatment method according to their needs.

1. How to treat pearl rash: laser therapy

Advantages: Laser therapy is a high-temperature therapy, with a temperature of over 700°C. It mainly carbonizes and scabs the pearly tissue. After the scabs fall off, the wound surface is covered with new squamous epithelium. The treatment of pearly rash generally uses a carbon dioxide laser with a wavelength of 10.6μm infrared light. The preparation before treatment is the same as that of electric ironing.

Disadvantages: High cost, imported laser equipment is expensive, so the price of removing pearly rash is also high and it is easy to relapse.

2. How to treat pearl rash: cryotherapy

Advantages: Cryotherapy is a kind of ultra-low temperature treatment. The cooling source is liquid nitrogen, and the temperature is -196℃. During treatment, choose the appropriate probe according to the condition of pearly rash. To improve the efficacy, the freeze-thaw-freeze method can be used, that is, freeze for 1 minute, warm for 3 minutes, and freeze again for 1 minute. Its advantage is that it is simple to operate.

Disadvantages: Liquid nitrogen sprays out gas, and the area is difficult to control. It is easy to cause blisters, infection, and scarring after freezing. It is not as well-known as laser therapy.

3. How to treat pearl rash: drug treatment

Advantages: It acts on the necrosis and shedding of pearly rash, the process is easy, and because it is for external use, there are no side effects and it is not easy to relapse.

Disadvantages: The treatment time is relatively long, needing 5-10 days, and the place where the medicine is applied cannot be exposed to water for 24 hours, otherwise it will affect the effect.

Pearly rash is a benign disease. Some people may not have any changes for decades, while others may disappear after a period of time. Pearly rash is not contagious and will not be transmitted or spread through sexual intercourse, so it does not need to be treated and will not harm your health. However, in order to prevent the disease from getting worse, timely protection should be given. If it is caused by foreskin being too long, the foreskin should be treated as soon as possible.
