Balanitis- Types

There are many types of Balanitis:

Zoon Balanitis:  Its a cutaneous condition characterized by a benign inflammatory skin lesion characterized histologically by a plasma cell infiltrate. It is named after J.J Zoon who characterized it in 1952


It is also known as "Balanoposthitis chronica circumscripta plasmacellularis," "Balanitis circumscripta plasmacellularis," "Plasma cell balanitis," "Plasma cell vulvitis," "Vulvitis circumscripta plasmacellularis," "Zoon's balanitis," "Zoon's erythroplasia," and "Zoon's vulvitis" 

A similar condition has been described in women although its existence is controversial due to the possibility of diagnostic error in many of the cases that have been reported in the medical literature

Zoon Balanitis is an idiopathic, rare, benign penile dermatosis. Circumcision is often the preferred treatment. 

It has been successfully treated with the carbon dioxide laser. Recently however Albertini and colleagues report the avoidance of circumcision and successful treatment of Zoon's balanitis with an Er:YAG laser. 

Another study, by Retamar and colleagues, found that 40 percent of those treated with CO2 laser relapsed.

Pseudoepitheliomatous keratotic and micaceous balanitis: It is a cutaneous condition characterized by skin lesions on the glans penis. It can be seen as a cutaneous horn in some cases. They are wart-like with scaling.




Circinate balantitis: It is a serpiginous annular dermatitis associated with Reiter's syndrome. It is also known as balanitis circinata.

  1. My name is Trisha Nelson I had Rectum effect and I was so worried am I going to die soon. I made my search on herbal remedy for rectum effect, then I found lots of testimonies on how Dr James Herbal Medicine cured diseases like Rectum effects, intestine damage, bowel obstruction, Ovarian disease, Cancer, hypothyroidism, Herpes, COPD, HIV,Colon cancer, Arthritis, Lyme disease,Hpv, Infections,Liver Disease, Autoimmune Diseases, Parkinson's disease,Lupus,Nephrology and Hypertension, Neurology, Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Women's Health, Oncology, Pediatrics, Pulmonary, ACUTE MYELOFIBROSIS, ALZHEIMER's symptoms, BREAST CANCER, DIABETES, HAIR LOSS AND HAIR TREATMENT, KIDNEY DISEASES, LEUKEMIA, MYELOID LEUKEMIA, STEM CELL TREATMENT , On websites sharing their testimonies, which made much more sense to me. All the authors pronounce Dr James As a man with Good Heart, I picked interest in their testimonies and I contact him about my situation then he gave me procedure how it works, I proceed after one week he courier his Herbal Medicine to me and instructed me on how to drink it for two weeks to cure. I received His Herbal Medicine so I drank it for two weeks as I was told then after 2 weeks of drinking his medicine, I went for a test I found out I was cured from Rectum effect, I paid homage to his country to celebrate with him on his African festival which he told me it usually happens every year. I know there are lots of diseases denials of Herbal Remedy movement the same few doctors and they represent a very small fraction of the community. I could have died because I refused Natural Herbs Cures for so long, but luckily, by the grace of God I am alive to tell my story.
