Can oral antibiotics treat balanitis? Watch out for four major manifestations of mycotic balanitis

Mildew balanitis is a male disease that is prone to infection with gynaecological inflammation such as partner, vulvitis and vaginitis. It is prone to occur in young adults between the ages of 20 and 50. Now, let's understand what is mycotic balanitis? How does it express and spread?

Fungal balanitis is a kind of mold called Candida. It usually occurs in patients who have foreskin removed. The balanitis is bright red and has small pustules or papules on the surface. The incidence of male candidal balanitis is increasing. The main reason is that it is related to sexual contact. Sexual intercourse with women suffering from candidal vaginitis is prone to infection. Second, contact with other indirect objects such as underwear, bath towel and bath pool. The foreskin is too long. Candida can breed and proliferate in the inner plate of the foreskin, coronal groove and glans.

Expression of mycotic balanitis

1. The penis and penis skin are extremely itchy and hot, which is the most prominent symptom of mycotic balanitis.

2. In patients with mycotic balanitis, the penis head, coronary groove and inner plate of prepuce are red and swollen, and there are scattered red papules. The white dirt like sticky bean curd residue can be seen on the penis head, the inner plate of the foreskin and the coronal groove.

3. When urethral infection occurs, symptoms such as painful urination, frequent urination, urgency of urination, burning and itching in the urethra may occur.

4. After scrotal infection, the skin of the scrotum is red and scaly erythema, accompanied by itching and pain symptoms. The pain symptoms are aggravated after washing with soap and water.

Transmission of mycotic balanitis

1. Sexually transmitted infections: Candida albicans exist in the mucous membrane of female genital tract, some of them are infected, and some of them are not infected, which are long-term carriers. During sexual intercourse, the bacteria can be transmitted to the male genitals. If the foreskin is too long, do not pay attention to personal hygiene and do not clean the foreskin, it is easy to cause mycotic prepuceitis of the penis.

2. The use of contaminated bathware and bathing in dirty bathrooms and bathrooms can also cause mycotic balanitis.
