BALANITIS is the inflammation of the glans (head) of the penis. It typically causes redness, itching, and discomfort. Common causes include:
• Infections: Bacterial or fungal (often yeast) infections.
• Irritants: Chemicals in soaps, detergents, or personal care products.
• Poor Hygiene: Inadequate cleaning, especially in uncircumcised men.
• Allergic Reactions: Sensitivity to substances like latex or lubricants.
Good hygiene—washing the area daily with warm water and avoiding harsh products - can help prevent balanitis. However, if symptoms such as persistent redness, swelling, or discharge continue, it is important to seek professional care.
