The appearance of fungal balanitis is caused by its own weak resistance, poor sanitation of the glans, iatrogenic infection and other reasons.

What is fungal balanitis?

1. The

patient's own weak resistance causes fungal substances to invade the patient's body to stimulate the tissues of the glans, resulting in skin itching, pain and other fungal balanitis symptoms.

2, the glans part of poor hygiene

If the patient usually does not pay attention to the health of the glans part, it may cause a lot of dirt to accumulate in the glans, easy to cause a large number of fungi to invade the glans, and eventually lead to fungal glans inflammation.

3. Iatrogenic infection

What is fungal balanitis?

If the patient is in circumcision, the medical staff does not strictly follow the aseptic operation or the medical equipment used by the patient is not thoroughly disinfected, which leads to local infection of fungi and induces fungal balanitis. In

addition to the above common reasons, it may also be caused by sexual transmission, frequent cleaning, and the use of irritating cleaning agents. It is recommended that patients with fungal balanitis go to regular hospitals for treatment as soon as possible, and keep the skin of the glans dry and clean.
