    Wiping the glans with iodophor is harmless in most cases, because iodophor is a disinfectant and sterilizing drug. Wiping the glans after dilution will not cause harmful stimulation to the glans. It can generally be used to disinfect and sterilize the glans. This drug can be used correctly under the guidance of a doctor.

    If the glans is itchy or the surface is peeling and dry, you can generally follow the doctor's advice to wipe the surface of the glans with iodophor. If the glans is abnormal due to fungal infection, you can also use iodophor to wipe it appropriately. If the symptoms do not disappear after wiping the glans with iodine, it is generally recommended that the patient actively seek medical treatment and treat according to the cause. Do not blindly use drugs to avoid adverse effects on the body.
