Is sunbathing useful for balanitis?

Generally speaking, sun exposure for balanitis has a certain effect, but it cannot achieve the final treatment effect. It needs to be treated with drugs or surgery under the guidance of a doctor.

Balanitis is generally caused by infection of the glans area. It may be caused by various reasons such as not paying attention to local hygiene, unclean sex, excessive foreskin, etc. Balanitis can be effectively sterilized and disinfected by basking in the sun, which can effectively reduce local itching and pain. However, the skin of the glans area is relatively sensitive. Avoid strong ultraviolet rays, which can easily increase the sensitivity of the glans and also easily sunburn the skin.

Balanitis can be cleaned with physiological sodium chloride solution, and antibiotics can be taken orally under the guidance of a doctor. If necessary, the foreskin needs to be removed through circumcision under the guidance of a doctor.
