Inflammation of the male reproductive system has always been the most troublesome thing in many men's lives. These inflammations are prone to recurrence, difficult to completely cure, and can also bring a lot of discomfort, which is a solid and unspoken secret. Moreover, several of these inflammations can also affect male fertility. For example, balanitis is a reproductive disease that many men encounter. So will balanitis actually affect fertility? How can we completely cure balanitis?

1、 Etiology of balanitis

Balanitis is related to various factors and can be divided into infectious and non infectious factors. Under normal circumstances, a large number of bacteria, yeast, and spirochetes can parasitize in the skin. When local or systemic resistance weakens, these microorganisms can become pathogenic pathogens. Mainly caused by bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, followed by Candida, Trichomonas, Mycoplasma, Chlamydia gonorrhoeae, etc. It can also cause inflammation of the foreskin and glans. Balanitis is often caused by bacterial infections or inflammatory infections from others in the same room. We must treat it according to the doctor's advice. At the same time, it is important to rest more, drink more water, promote urination, maintain personal hygiene, wear loose cotton underwear, change and wash frequently, exercise moderately, avoid spicy seafood, and avoid scratching with your hands to avoid infection.

2、 Can balanitis affect fertility?

Balanitis generally does not affect fertility, but it is best not to engage in sexual activity when balanitis occurs. If it is acute balanitis, it is usually the main cause of bacterial infection, and some antibiotics, such as penicillin, can be used. Long term inflammation can cause local thickening of the foreskin, thereby affecting urination function and leading to penile cancer. If left untreated, it may cause other symptoms such as prostatitis or orchitis. Patients may experience symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, and pain, but this does not affect semen quality. If semen is normal, it will not affect fertility. Although balanitis patients generally do not affect fertility, it is important to check the cause and seek early diagnosis and treatment.

3、 How can balanitis be completely cured

To thoroughly treat balanitis, a combination of anti infective drugs and some antibiotics is required. For the treatment of balanitis, the area needs to be cleaned first, so potassium permanganate needs to be used to clean the area. This can improve the effectiveness of local bacterial infection, and there should be no disorderly behavior during nursing. Therefore, both spouses must undergo local cleaning before sharing a room. It is recommended to soak and rinse the glans with a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for 10 minutes each time. Then apply Baiduobang ointment 3-4 times a day. If the medication improves. Failure to pay attention to the hygiene of the glans can lead to recurrence. In this case, circumcision can be considered. Postoperative exposure of the glans can effectively prevent the recurrence of balanitis.

Overall, balanitis is a relatively stubborn disease, and if circumcision is not performed, it is often prone to recurrence. Moreover, it is quite troublesome to cure through the use of antibiotics both internally and externally every time. Moreover, during the onset of balanitis, sexual intercourse is not allowed to worsen or spread the disease. It is recommended to pay more attention to personal hygiene and prioritize prevention in daily life!
