Redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin are common foreskin problems, especially in hot summer. The phenomenon of redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin is more common, and there are many reasons that may lead to redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin. Below is a detailed introduction by experts from Lishui Jiulong Hospital on how to treat redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin?
How to treat red, swollen and itchy prepuce? First of all, we need to know how the foreskin is red, swollen, and itchy?
1. Genital infections:
Infection with Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Trichomonas, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, Fungi, Gonococcus, or other bacteria can be caused;
2. Prepuce balanitis:
Can be caused by unclean sex and excessive foreskin. "Prolonged or phimosis of the foreskin can prevent the secretion of the sebaceous glands within the foreskin from being excreted, and sebum and sediment in urine can form a cheesy, odorous foreskin scale.". Due to long-term chronic stimulation of urine and foreskin scaling, it can induce localized foreskin and mucous membranes that are not cleared in time and can easily induce foreskin inflammation, resulting in redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin.
Experts say that if we want to thoroughly treat the redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin without recurrence, we must fundamentally solve the problem.
"Redness, swelling, and itching of the foreskin are generally caused by inflammation. It is worth noting by male friends that if it is caused by inflammation caused by an excessively long foreskin, in this case, in addition to treating inflammation, the problem of excessive foreskin should also be addressed during treatment.". This is because if the problem of excessive foreskin is not addressed, even if the foreskin is red, swollen, and itchy, it can quickly recur, as the environment that causes the foreskin to be red, swollen, and itchy remains. This is what is called treating the symptoms without addressing the root causes. From the perspective of preventing infection and improving the quality of sexual life, foreskin surgery should be performed as soon as possible.
