Balanitis

Balanitis is a condition characterised by inflammation of the glans penis, leading to swelling and discomfort. It can cause various symptoms, including redness, itching, and pain in the affected area. The condition may arise from several causes, such as poor hygiene, infections, or skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Treatment options typically involve maintaining proper hygiene, applying topical creams or ointments, and, in some cases, taking oral medications if an infection is present. It's important to seek medical advice if symptoms persist, worsen, or if you experience severe pain, as this may indicate a more serious underlying issue.
