Hi,
Could you please update us whether these symptoms went away or not? Did you get any treatment or diagnose? I would appreciate it.
Thanks!
Hi,
What you are referring from seems like balanitis (inflammation of the glans penis). Balanitis can be caused by physical trauma, infections by bacteria, fungus, viruses etc. Diabetes is one of the risk factors for recurrent balanitis. The diagnosis is made by a good history, physical examination & by taking swabs/cultures etc. Please do consult a urologist for the same. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care
It just came to my mind that could all of these symptoms be caused by yeast infection? Because for these 2 months i´ve had some kind of symptoms (redness and mild abnormal smell) under my foreskin also.
Thanks for the answer! I have to take a look at that possibility if these symptoms don´t really seem to go away. It´s helpful to know that tests like that exist and that there´s at least something more i can do about this.
Hi,
The chances of a stricture in the urethra seem minimal but it needs to be ruled out for a confirmation of the diagnosis. For the same, I’ll suggest you to consult a urologist and discuss about urethrogram/micturating cystourethrogram for the confirmation of the diagnosis. It’s a diagnostic test in which a dye is injected and x-rays of the urethra are taken to see if there’s any obstruction in the urinary tract. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
