Q. What is the treatment for a small lesion at the beginning of the urethra?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

It appears to be balanitis due to scratching, rubbing, or friction. Apply 1 % Hydrocortisone gel at night for seven days. Apply Fucidin (Butylhydroxyanisole) cream in the daytime for seven days. Wash the area with a non-soap cleanser daily for one month. Avoid scratching and rubbing the lesion. Avoid friction. Keep the site clean and dry. Observe if you notice any change in the lesion, and get a biopsy done to rule out malignancy if a suspicious-looking difference is found.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
