Hi

Thanks for posting your query
The treatment of balanitis depends on the cause of the balanitis.

If you are diabetic first control diabetes and then treat the cause.

Balanitis that is caused by bacteria may be treated with antibiotic tablets or creams.

Balanitis that occurs with skin diseases may respond to treatment of the skin condition.

In severe cases, circumcision may be the best option.
