How to treat a mosquito bite on the glans penis
Disease description:
My husband is 25 years old. After waking up in the morning, he noticed itching and red spots on the glans, which seems like a mosquito bite. I would like to know how to treat a mosquito bite on the glans.
Treatment for a mosquito bite on the glans should begin with local cleansing, gently washing the area with warm water and patting it dry. Cold compresses may be applied, such as wrapping ice in a towel and placing it on the affected area, to relieve itching and swelling. If symptoms are mild, topical anti-inflammatory and antipruritic ointments, such as calamine lotion or zinc oxide lotion, may be applied externally. If redness, swelling, and itching are severe or if blisters or erosion develop, prompt medical attention is recommended. Under a physician's guidance, topical application of 3% boric acid solution or furacilin solution may be used, along with antibiotic ointment to prevent infection. Additionally, oral antihistamines such as loratadine or cetirizine may be taken to alleviate symptoms. Throughout the treatment process, scratching should be avoided to prevent secondary infection. If symptoms persist or fail to improve, timely medical consultation is necessary to obtain professional treatment.
