The development of any disease can be caused by the effects of congenital or acquired( external) factors. Red spots on the head are formed on the same principle. Therefore, when a man encounters a similar phenomenon, it is advisable to undergo examination from a competent specialist in order to determine the nature of the cause, to select the appropriate treatment aimed at the absolute elimination( eradication) of the revealed factor.
Causes of red spots
Before the doctor selects an effective treatment method, the reasons leading to the formation of red spots on the head should be determined. Careful identification of contributing factors is carried out with the help of certain instruments, survey methods. Specialists in the field of urology consider it expedient to separate these factors into: non-infectious
- ;
- is infectious.
Factors non-infectious nature
Non-infective reasons for the formation of red spots on the head is considered to be a weakened organism, low immunity. It is proved that with a low immunity the body loses its ability to fight against certain types of bacteria, viruses, fungi. So, if a man is sick for a long time, is in a stressful state, does not adhere to the principles of healthy sleep, then soon the symptoms of thrush will start to worry him. One of the symptoms of thrush is the red spots on the head.
A non-infectious factor is also considered to be the apparent non-observance of the rules of personal( intimate) hygiene. If a man does not keep clean, that is, he does not change his underwear for several days, does not subject his genitals to frequent washing, and various bacteria are formed on their mucous that can cause irritation. Therefore it is not surprising that, among other signs of untidiness, the red spots will most of all disturb, as a result of excessive irritation of the mucosa.
Another factor of non-infectious nature is allergic dermatitis, as a result of exposure to the scalp of certain irritants. These can be: lubricant from a condom, lubricants, poor-quality linen( synthetic or from excessively coarse material), means for intimate hygiene with dyes or aggressive chemical additives. Often red spots on the head with allergic dermatitis are accompanied by swelling, small vials filled with colorless liquid.
Infectious factors
If it turns out that a thrush in a man is not provoked by his low immunity or a weakened body, then the cause is infectious and is the result of unprotected sex with an infected partner. In this circumstance, cases of thrush are accompanied not only by red spots on the head. In parallel with this, the patient is disturbed by an unpleasant itch, sour smell, curdled secretions. It is not advisable to delay the visit to a specialist, because infectious thrush( in another way - candidiasis) is a serious enough disease, leading to complications.
The next factor of infectious origin is psoriasis. The disease is serious enough, it requires compulsory treatment. The first sign of psoriasis is the appearance of red dots with clearly defined boundaries. Over time, the specks begin to dry out, becoming covered with a light crust. In addition to the spots, the patient is troubled by itching.
Another cause of red spots on the head rests against genital herpes. The disease progresses rapidly, worries the patient with a strong itch, bubbles filled with liquid( when they try to comb them they burst, turning into sores later), burning, genital pain, deterioration of well-being, anxiety, enlarged lymph nodes in the inguinal region. If there is no treatment, there is a spread of genital herpes to neighboring organs.
Red spots on the head may indicate infection of the patient with syphilis. The disease belongs to the category of serious, as it leads to a number of complications, which subsequently can not be cured. A red spot may appear a few weeks after infection. Initially, it is quite small, but eventually increases to a certain size. After a while at the top of this spot a sore with dense edges is formed. To treat syphilis is recommended at the initial stage, until the patient is not faced with the consequences of the disease.
Control of red spots
Having correctly determined the causes of the red spots of the head, choosing a treatment regimen is already quite a simple matter. Self-medication in such cases is not even considered, since the patient himself will never be able to pinpoint the cause of the illness. An attempt by a patient to independently identify the cause of the phenomenon will only aggravate his condition and complicate the process of adequate treatment. The diagnosis is made only after a thorough examination by an experienced specialist.
If the cause of red spots is weakened immunity, then the task of treatment is to strengthen the body with a complex of vitamins, immunomodulating agents and preparations. When allergic dermatitis eliminates irritating factors, that is, the patient should deal with the change of underwear for better and delicate, find for themselves other condoms, cosmetics for intimate hygiene. Frequent change of clothes, daily washing of the genitals will also eliminate the presence of red spots.
But if the reasons of the considered phenomenon rest in various infections, without the help of certain medicines antimicrobial action can not be dispensed with. The doctor will select the most suitable drugs, taking into account the sensitivity of the detected bacteria to certain groups of antibacterial drugs.
Practice shows that most of the stronger sex prefers not to contact specialists, so as not to advertise about their diseases. Therefore, to get rid of the main sore, they choose an independent way of treatment, which not only does not give positive results, but also contributes to the emergence of new health problems. Such an approach to solving the problem arises is not advisable. It should be rational to approach any problem, trusting experts, not the advice of friends, colleagues, relatives.
When infectious thrush, psoriasis and genital herpes are prescribed antibacterial drugs that can completely destroy the infection. Some drugs have a local effect and are prescribed in the form of ointments, creams. The course of treatment is of a short-term nature, after a few days or a couple of weeks the patient can forget about the red spots.
The situation with syphilis is much more complicated. Because the infection is serious enough, the disease is treated for at least one month. For the next two years, the patient must pass all the necessary tests to prevent recurrence. The control is carried out by the attending physician-venereologist. The most effective antibacterial drugs for the treatment of syphilis are: Penicillin, Tetracycline. In parallel, vitamin complexes are prescribed, immunostimulants to strengthen the body, ensuring its ability to resist various bacteria, microorganisms.
