Chronic Balanitis Practical Home Remedies

[Hcures]

Chronic Balanitis is not only physically debilitating but also a highly psychological stress and depression causing condition. When suffered frequent flare-ups, it not only affects the sufferer but also mentally affect the whole family and friends.

Some statistics infer that the condition is suffered by up to 1 in every 30 males in sampled groups. That is very high number when extrapolated to all relevant male population.

Despite all the bother, normally Balanitis alone does not result in further serious illness. With careful management and staying positive, the condition can be brough under control. Best approach is to believe it is manageable condition and not over think. For psychologically sensitive sufferers, flare-ups will fell 100x worse!

In general, these sort of irritative health problems develop when body lacks immunity to stay healthy. Older and aggressively dieting men likely to have low-levels of immunity. Most remedies that improve overall immunity will help towards curing the condition.

**GPs and Consultants: **

Most GPs and specialists treat the condition same as eczema. No consistent testing and treatment regime in place for this condition either.

Following creams are prescribed

>> Canesten HC

>> Fucidin

>> Elidel

>> Eumovate

>> Canesten HC

>> Mometasone Furoate

..

Most of these creams really supposed to be for short-term use but some doctors prescribe for on-going use.

Unfortunately, some doctors give up saying it is a condition patients have to live with.

**Swab, STI Screening, Biopsy**

Swab and STI Screening are not very good at diagnosing the balanitis condition. They often give negative result because of the usage of creams.

Biopsy is very painful procedure that needs the patient to not use any creams for at least 4 weeks. It often finds no conclusive diagnosis.

** Medical research**

Quite a few articles on internet but most of them are not based of full-proof medical research.

Seeing all the posts in social media, this condition needs proper research by organisation like health-unblocked?
