Parents often scratch their children's genitals, every one or two minutes, and only after asking did they find out that their child has a problem with itchy glans. When parents see itching symptoms on their child's glans, they are also very concerned that their child's genitals may have other problems, so they want to first figure out what is causing the itching on their child's glans?
If a child experiences itching on the glans penis, it is mainly considered to have balanitis. Balanitis may be caused by the child's foreskin being too long or phimosis not being cleaned properly in daily life, resulting in dirt and grime accumulation on the glans penis. Urine remains on the foreskin every day, which can breed bacteria over time. Under the action of bacteria and sweat caused by hot and humid weather, balanitis and itching symptoms are caused.
The most obvious disease for a child's itchy glans is balanitis, but it may also be eczema or allergies on the child's glans, or itching caused by mosquito bites. The specific cause should be further judged based on the child's specific symptoms. When parents cannot determine the cause of their child's itchy glans, they should first take the child to the hospital for examination.
Parents should pay attention to the symptoms of itching on the glans penis in their children's bodies, take them for examination and treatment in a timely manner, and solve them at the mildest stage of the disease to avoid other problems and serious consequences, which may affect the child's future sexual and reproductive abilities.
