Symptoms of fungal balanitis in men

Fungal balanitis is also a relatively common type of glans inflammation. The age range of the disease is mostly between 20 and 50 years old. Because during this period, the sebaceous glands of men secrete more vigorously. If you do not pay attention to cleaning, it may cause the growth of fungi and lead to glans inflammation. This often causes skin itching and burning. In addition, it is easy to cause redness and swelling of the coronal sulcus, red papules and other symptoms.

Symptoms of fungal balanitis in men

1. The most prominent symptoms of this disease are itching and burning of the glans penis and the skin of the penis. 2. The glans penis, coronal sulcus and inner foreskin are red and swollen, and there are scattered red papules. 3. Sticky white dirt resembling tofu dregs can be seen on the glans penis, inner layer of foreskin, and coronal sulcus. 4. After the scrotum is infected, the scrotal skin will become red and have scaly erythema. It is also accompanied by itching and pain, which worsens after washing with soapy water. 5.

Disease hazards

1. The occurrence of male balanitis can affect the health of the male reproductive system and induce the occurrence of diseases such as prostatitis, epididymitis and orchitis in men. If epididymitis is not treated promptly and effectively, it will cause more serious harm to the male reproductive organs. 2. Male balanitis can also cause urinary tract infections in men. For example, men may be prone to diseases such as cystitis, pyelonephritis and nephritis. When men suffer from chronic balanitis and cannot be cured for a long time, it is easy to cause such diseases, which can be life-threatening in severe cases.
