&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Balanitis is a common yet often preventable condition that can cause discomfort, pain, and unpleasant symptoms if left untreated. Understanding its causes&amp;mdash;from infections and poor hygiene to underlying health conditions like diabetes or phimosis&amp;mdash;is key to managing and preventing recurrence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Most cases respond well to proper hygiene, topical treatments, and medications, while recurrent or severe cases may require circumcision.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Early recognition of symptoms such as redness, swelling, pain, or abnormal discharge, coupled with timely medical care, ensures effective treatment, reduces complications, and protects long-term penile health.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
