Understanding Balanitis

Balanitis is inflammation of the head of the penis, causing redness, itching and soreness. It is often due to a yeast or bacterial infection, irritation, or poor drainage under a tight foreskin.

Most cases clear with hygiene advice and a short course of cream or tablets. Recurrent balanitis linked to a tight foreskin is best treated with circumcision. Ayushman Surgicare arranges the consultation and any procedure.

Common Symptoms

If you have one or more of these, it's worth speaking to a specialist.

Redness and swelling of the head of the penis
Itching, soreness or a burning feeling
A tight or difficult-to-retract foreskin
Discharge or a bad smell under the foreskin
Pain when passing urine
Repeated episodes despite treatment

Our specialists use the latest minimally invasive techniques wherever possible — smaller incisions, less bleeding and a faster return to daily life.

Every patient has a full pre-surgical evaluation to decide the most effective approach, and a multidisciplinary team supports your health before, during and after the procedure.

Real people, real recoveries

A few words from patients whose treatment was coordinated through Ayushman Surgicare.

“The kidney stone pain put me in the ER twice. The RIRS procedure broke it up with a laser, no cuts, and I was home the next day. They also gave me a plan so it doesn't happen again.”
RRamesh G.RIRS (Kidney Stone) · Hyderabad
“I'd been getting up four times a night to pass urine. The laser prostate procedure fixed it — and my sleep, and my wife's, is finally back to normal.”
PPrakash V.Enlarged Prostate Surgery · Uppal
“The recurrent infections under the foreskin were miserable. The stapler circumcision took fifteen minutes, barely any swelling, and I haven't had a problem since.”
