I understand that you're experiencing periodic itching and redness of the glans, which is commonly associated with balanitis. This condition can be uncomfortable and frustrating, especially when relief seems temporary. However, the information you've provided is somewhat limited. To provide you with a more tailored approach, could you share more details? Specifically, it would be helpful to know if you've noticed any triggers for the itching or redness, such as specific foods, personal hygiene products, or sexual activity. Additionally, are there any other symptoms like discharge, swelling, or changes in urination?
In Ayurveda, balanitis may be related to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, leading to inflammation and irritation. It's essential to maintain proper hygiene in the genital area, using mild, unscented soap and ensuring the area stays dry. Avoiding irritants such as tight clothing or synthetic materials can also help.
For relief, consider using a warm compress on the affected area to soothe irritation. A balanced diet that reduces Pitta aggravation—avoiding spicy, acidic, and processed foods—can also be beneficial. Stress management techniques, such as meditation or yoga, may help reduce inflammation.
If the condition persists, I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation to rule out any underlying infections or conditions. Please share any additional details you may have so we can explore effective Ayurvedic remedies to manage your symptoms better.

My Hba1c was 6.7 15 days back and fasting sugar 133 .. never taken medication... Urine report was normal ...what is sperm infection? Does residual sperm also cause this?
It sounds frustrating dealing with recurring itching and redness on the glans. Let's see what might be going on from an Ayurvedic standpoint. Often, such symptoms can be tied to an imbalance of the Pitta dosha, which is linked to heat and inflammation in the body. This heat might be surfacing as itching and redness, so balancing Pitta is key.
First, let's talk diet. Try reducing your intake of spicy, oily, and acidic foods as these can aggravate Pitta. So maybe go easy on chile and tomatoes and instead focus on cooling foods like cucumber, coconut water, and leafy greens. It's simple, but food can really make a difference.
Also, hydration is crucial. Drinking plenty of room-temperature water can help flush out toxins, but avoid icy drinks—they can disrupt the digestive fire, or agni. Herbal teas like chamomile or mint are great options too.
Now, for some topical help. A gentle wash using neem water might soothe your skin. Neem has cooling properties and can help with the itching. Just boil a few neem leaves, let them steep, and once it's cooled, use as a rinse on the affected area. Be sure it's cool before applying!
Lifestyle plays a part, too. Try including relaxing practices to ease stress, like meditation or light yoga. Stress can provoke Pitta, so keeping calm might actually help the skin.
Avoid tight clothing and synthetic fabrics as they can irritate the skin further. Wear loose, breathable cotton garments instead.
However, please keep in mind, if the itching persists, or any new symptoms develop, it’s best to consult a healthcare professional. Sometimes, issues need deeper medical evaluation to get to the root cause. Safety comes first!
These steps are fairly easy to integrate into daily be, little efforts but promise a holistic healing journey without reaching for something that's skin harsh. Hopefully, this helps your quest for relief and balance.
