Balanoposthitis: ointment will help

If men do not comply with proper hygiene or because of the low elasticity of the prepuce , a disease such as balanoposthitis may occur. It is manifested by pain, itching and burning. Therapy of this disease is aimed at rapid removal of the inflammatory process, ensuring proper hygienic conditions. This disease is not a sexually transmitted disease. Before attributing the treatment, the doctor conducts a series of studies to determine the causes of inflammation. Based on the obtained result, forms a scheme of therapy. Most often it is local, creams and ointments of different types of action are used.

If due to the diagnosis it was determined that this is a candida balanoposthitis, the ointment will be an antifungal action. When bacterial infection - with antiseptic effect, and if allergic manifestations are found, the use of glucocorticoid ointments is appropriate. The choice always depends on the identified cause of the inflammatory process. If during the diagnosis a mixed balanoposthitis was found, the ointment is assigned a combined action or several drugs are used.

With a widespread inflammatory process, it may be decided to prescribe systemic antibacterial drugs. It is necessary to treat the disease responsibly.

So, if there was a fungal balanoposthitis, the ointment will contain nystatin or imidazole derivatives. Before applying medicines, the foreskin must be pulled. Process twice a day. If a diagnosis is made - "simple balanoposthitis" or "erosive balanoposthitis", "Lorinden-C" or "Dermozolone" ointment, "Gyioxysone" is prescribed first. And do not neglect the use of these medicines. How to apply them, be sure to tell the doctor.

Whatever etiology is not revealed balanoposthitis, Miramistin (solution) will give a good therapeutic effect. It is a synthetic drug with a high bactericidal activity against microorganisms, which are the most common cause of the disease. It also has an antiviral effect. Calculate this medicine for topical application.

In the presence of the diagnosis of "balanoposthitis", treatment (Miramistin, solution) is carried out as follows: gauze bandage is moistened, applied to the affected surface, and up to 3 ml of the drug is injected into the urethra by means of a special nozzle. The exposure time is 5 minutes, it is necessary to additionally treat the area of the pubic region and genitals with the solution. There may be minor side effects that do not require withdrawal of the drug. This is a burning sensation in the application of the drug. Symptoms disappear literally within fifteen minutes.

When using this medicine, it is necessary to take into account the peculiarity of its interaction with antibiotics. Their joint use significantly reduces the sensitivity of bacteria to the latter.

Of the group of glucocorticoids, ointments "Gyioxysone", "Dermozolone" are most effective. The first is prescribed when purulent complications appear. To treat the inflamed surface it is necessary to take one gram of ointment and apply a thin layer (twice a day). It is possible to use ointments as anti-inflammatory dressings. A more rare option is the use of aerosol. In this case, the drug is applied several times a day from a distance of 20 cm for a couple of seconds. Its use is contraindicated in the detection of individual intolerance. An allergic reaction may be observed as a side effect.

The drug "Dermozolone" is used in the same situations if treatment with drugs with another composition was ineffective. The method of use is the same as above. Contraindication - hypersensitivity to iodine, skin tuberculosis, syphilis, various neoplasms.
