The penis of men is the same as the vagina of women. They are private parts of the human body. In life, we can only keep these parts healthy if we keep them hygienic. However, some friends are very lazy in life. At this time, they will neglect the care of these parts, which will cause diseases. For example, some men find that there are many pimples around their penis. So what is the reason for the pimples around the penis? Balanitis refers to inflammation of the inner layer of the foreskin and the glans penis. A lipid substance secreted in the normal foreskin cavity can accumulate into smegma when the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, which can irritate the foreskin and glans penis and cause balanitis. This disease can also be caused by bacterial or fungal infection or drug allergy. Clinical manifestations Balanitis caused by drug allergy is a delayed allergic reaction, which usually occurs 24 to 72 hours after taking the drug. Candidal balanitis: It is more common in cases of excessive foreskin and a history of unclean sexual intercourse. The foreskin and glans penis may be slightly flushed. There may be white cheese-like secretions on the inner plate of the foreskin and the glans glans coronal sulcus. There may be needle-sized light red papules on the glans glans. If the outer foreskin and scrotum are invaded, scaly erythema may be seen. If the fossa navicularis is involved, there may be frequent urination and dysuria. There may be burning sensation and itching locally. Occasionally, fulminant edema balanitis may occur, which is mainly manifested by obvious edema and severe itching of the foreskin penis, with shallow ulcers. 1. Acute superficial galactitis It is usually caused by friction of underwear, trauma, or local irritation from soap or detergent. It manifests as edema, erythema, exudation, erosion, secondary infection with purulent secretions, easy formation of ulcers, and spontaneous pain. 2. Annular erosive glans The lesions of the glans and foreskin are ring-shaped, or the rings have cheese-like smegma, which can easily break down into superficial ulcers over time. If the ring-shaped features are lost, it is difficult to distinguish from superficial glansitis. This disease can exist alone or as a mucosal symptom of Reiter syndrome. 3. Cytoplasmic balanitis It is more common in middle-aged people. It is a single or multiple chronic inflammations that last for a long time. The damage is plaque-like, with a smooth or scaly or moist surface, and the infiltration is more obvious. The boundary is clear and not easy to break. Small spots like paprika can be seen on the surface. The appearance is difficult to distinguish from the hyperplastic erythema of the glans penis. If similar damage occurs in the vulva, it is called plasmacytic vulvitis. 4. Mica and keratotic pseudoepitheliomatous glansitis The glans penis is damaged, infiltrated, hypertrophic, hyperkeratotic, and has mica-like crusts. The affected area loses its normal elasticity and atrophies over time. |
