Balano posthitis: It is infection of the foreskin and glans in uncircumcised men, balanoposthitis occurs over a wide age range and may have any of multiple bacterial or fungal origins or be caused by contact dermatitides. Complex infections have been well documented, often from a poorly retractile foreskin and poor hygiene that leads to colonization and overgrowth. Treatment focuses on clearing the infection and preventing recurrent /infection through improved hygiene. Circumcision may be considered for recurrent balanoposthitis. Balanoposthitis should not be confused with balanitis, which is infection of the glans penis. Medical Care Topical antibiotics (metronidazole cream) and antifungals (clotrimazole cream) or low-potency steroid creams for contact dermatitides often lead to clearing of the lesion. Proper hygiene with frequent washing and drying of the prepuce is an essential preventive measure. Topical applications of "water of the 3 sulfates" (copper sulfate, zinc sulfate, and alum) are useful. Surgical Care Circumcision may be advocated in recurrent and recalcitrant cases.
