How will I limit the swelling of the penis?
Penis swelling depends on its cause. If a man has a swelling of the penis due to minor injuries of the area, it can help using an ice package. Often, however, conditions such as balanitis, Peyronie's disease and priapism are to blame. Sometimes the swelling of the penis disappears in itself, given, but in other cases injections, medicines or surgical treatment are necessary. In some cases, the treatment of a condition that caused swelling also helps.
Balanitis is one condition able to cause the penis to swell. It is marked with a swelling that affects the head of this organ, but not the shaft. If a person is uncircumcised, it can also affect its foreskin and sometimes, along with the swelling of the penis, sometimes a rash, visible redness, pain and abnormal discharge occurs. Balanitis is usually caused by infection, irritation or insufficiently treated health and is more common in men who have not been circumcised. Treatment depends on the problem that caused it but may cover antibiotics, orally or appliedOt locally, care for any basic conditions and sometimes circumcision.
