Have you applied anything prior? Is there itching or is it painful?
Detailed medical history needs to be assessed before starting you on your personalised treatment
Kindly share a clear picture in good lighting of affected areas
• The appearance (redness, scaling/peeling over the glans) is most consistent with inflammatory balanitis, commonly due to fungal/irritant causes rather than a severe infection
• It doesn’t look like a typical pus-forming bacterial infection
• Moisture, friction, hygiene issues, or recent sexual activity can contribute
Next Steps
• Evaluate for predisposing factors like diabetes, hygiene practices, or partner-related infection
• Monitor if symptoms persist, worsen, or recur
Helpful Tips / Words of Caution
• Keep the area clean and completely dry, especially under the foreskin
• Avoid soap, antiseptics, or harsh products on the area
• Do not self-use random creams (especially steroid combinations)
• Avoid sexual activity till it settles to prevent irritation
• If recurrent, consider checking blood sugar levels
