Service Providers for Preputial Smear for C/S
A Pathology Preputial Smear for C/S (Culture and Sensitivity) is a test to detect infections under the foreskin, often for conditions like balanitis or other urogenital infections. The process involves collecting a sample from beneath the foreskin with a sterile swab. No special preparation is needed, but it’s ideal to avoid washing the area before the test. Potential risks include mild discomfort or irritation. Results help identify pathogens and antibiotic susceptibility. Infections like fungal, bacterial, or sexually transmitted diseases may affect the findings. The test is typically quick, and results are used to guide treatment.
