&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/balanitis&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Balanitis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; is the inflammation of the glans penis or the head of the penis. Though fairly common and usually not serious, it often comes with other uncomfortable symptoms. It can affect anyone with a penis but is more common in uncircumcised individuals, frequently causing concurrent inflammation of the foreskin (posthitis).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The most common symptoms of balanitis include swelling and redness of the glans penis, which often affect the foreskin. Depending on the underlying cause, balanitis may also present with:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;10 Causes of Balanitis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Poor Hygiene&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Poor hygiene can lead to balanitis because it allows the buildup of smegma&amp;mdash;a combination of dead skin cells, oils, and other secretions&amp;mdash;under the foreskin. This accumulation creates a moist environment that can promote the growth of bacteria and yeast.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The resulting irritation and infection can inflame the glans, penis, and surrounding area. Inadequate cleaning can also lead to an imbalance in the natural flora of the genital area, increasing susceptibility to infections and contributing to the development of balanitis. Regular hygiene practices, including gentle cleaning and thorough drying, can help prevent these issues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Infections&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Infections such as those caused by &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Staphylococcus&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Streptococcus&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; bacteria, and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Candida&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; fungi can lead to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/balanitis&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;balanitis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; due to several mechanisms:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tissue Damage&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; Bacterial infections can directly invade and damage the tissues of the glans penis, leading to inflammation and swelling.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Immune Response&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; The body&#39;s immune response to bacterial infections often results in inflammation, redness, and pain, contributing to the symptoms of balanitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Fungal infections &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;(e.g., &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Candida&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Under the foreskin, where moisture can accumulate, the fungus can grow and irritate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;In both bacterial and fungal infections, the presence of pathogens triggers an inflammatory response that manifests as balanitis, causing discomfort and other symptoms. Proper hygiene and timely treatment are crucial for managing and preventing these infections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;4.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/phimosis-tight-foreskin-treatment&quot;&gt;Phimosis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Phimosis can cause balanitis by making it difficult to retract the foreskin, leading to poor hygiene and the buildup of smegma, which irritates the glans penis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The trapped moisture under the foreskin creates a favorable environment for bacterial and fungal growth, increasing infection risk. Additionally, the resulting increased friction can further irritate the tissue. Together, these factors contribute to inflammation and the development of balanitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Allergic reactions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Allergic reactions can cause balanitis because they lead to inflammation and irritation of the skin on the glans penis. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When exposed to allergens or irritants, such as&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Lotions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;the immune system reacts by causing redness, swelling, and discomfort in the affected area. This inflammatory response can disrupt the skin&#39;s normal barrier function, making it more susceptible to irritation and infection, which can contribute to the development of balanitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
