Symptoms can vary, presenting as pain, irritation, abnormal discharge, or difficulty maintaining cleanliness due to phimosis, highlighting the importance of timely medical attention. Maintaining proper hygiene, such as regular cleaning under the foreskin, is essential in preventing and managing recurrent balanitis.
