In China, about 29% of adult men have redundant foreskin and about 9% have phimosis. The foreskin is too long or the phimosis should be corrected as soon as possible. In addition to the fact that the dirt formed by bacteria, viruses and exfoliated epithelial cells in the foreskin stimulates the inflammation of the penis, and may even induce penis cancer, it will also limit the development and growth of the penis. The treatment of redundant prepuce or phimosis is usually performed by surgery. If you are not willing to undergo prepuce surgery, you can try to correct yourself. So, how to correct the excessive prepuce?
When urinating every day, gently and slowly turn the foreskin up two or three times with your hands. After the glans is exposed, it lasts for a while, and then release your hands. After a few months of this, the glans will develop rapidly due to full exposure. With the growth of the body, the edge will bulge, and the foreskin will not recover. Usually, even in adulthood, due to the expansibility of prepuce, the defect of excessive prepuce can still be corrected by hand at this time. Only a few people need surgical treatment for phimosis.
If the correction is not effective, the operation should still be carried out in time, while the self-correction method is not suitable for those with serious phimosis, otherwise incarceration will occur, leading to glans edema and accidents. The operation of circumcision is very simple. The operation can be completed within 10 minutes after local anesthesia. It can be performed in the surgical outpatient department of general hospitals without hospitalization. It is recommended that those with long foreskin or phimosis, especially those with chronic foreskin balanitis, should not be afraid of medical treatment, and remove the root cause of the disease that is bad for themselves and their wives as soon as possible.
It is worth noting that self-correction of redundant prepuce is a gradual process, and we should not be eager to achieve success. Before each correction, pay attention to sanitation and wash hands, penis and vulva to avoid infection.
Treatment of prepuce in adolescence
The prepuce refers to the skin of the penis folded into two layers at the head of the penis. The foreskin is longer in infancy. Wrap the penis so that the glans and external mouth of the head of urine cannot be exposed. It is called physiological phimosis. With age. The penis and foreskin develop gradually. By adolescence. The foreskin shrank back. The glans is exposed in adulthood. But about 30% of adults. The foreskin still completely covers the penis and glans.
Adolescent boys are sensitive and curious. They are particularly concerned about their own sexual organs. Students are more enthusiastic about discussions and comparisons. Foreskin is one of the themes.
Some people had circumcision when they were young; There are also some people whose foreskin recedes to the back of the glans after reaching puberty. Those who have neither undergone excision nor retreated may have the problem of too long foreskin. For them, "Is the foreskin too long? Do you want to cut it? Is it painful? Is there any sequela?" is an urgent question to know.
Generally speaking, urologists have a positive attitude towards adult foreskin. To perform prepucectomy for children, general anesthesia is required. Unless there are cases where the prepuce mouth is too narrow and causes dysuria and recurrent inflammation, urologists rarely recommend prepucectomy for children.
After puberty, taking into account the factors of sexual behavior, local anesthesia is only necessary for local health and surgery in old age. Generally, the attitude towards prepuce treatment is more positive. During sexual intercourse, if the foreskin does not recede behind the glans, it is easy to get injured and bleed. The scale on the inside of the foreskin during sexual intercourse has a negative impact on the health of both men and women. The proportion of Jewish women suffering from cervical cancer is very low. Jewish boys have undergone circumcision in infancy due to religious reasons, which may be one of the factors.
What diseases are easily caused by excessive prepuce
The foreskin is located in the front of the male reproductive organs, tightly covering the penis, which is not only an important part of the male reproductive organs, but also has important physiological significance.
Although redundant prepuce and phimosis are minor ailments in male diseases, their widespread incidence makes them common and harmful, which should not be underestimated. After urination, the last few drops of urine of patients with redundant prepuce are not easy to be drained, and often accumulate in the prepuce. In addition, the necrotic cells on the surface of prepuce and glans and the mucus secreted by them, as well as the pollution and reproduction of the rectum and perineum, In a warm and humid environment, it is easy to form a white film-like substance - foreskin scale.
If the foreskin scale is not thoroughly cleaned for a long time, it will stimulate the foreskin and glans, and eventually lead to other diseases, such as foreskin balanitis, foreskin stone, white spot disease caused by the peeling off of foreskin pigment, premature ejaculation and penis cancer, local long-term inflammation, immune dysfunction, and sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea and condyloma acuminatum are more likely to be infected through unclean sexual life, According to relevant statistics, the probability of phimosis in patients with redundant prepuce is dozens of times higher than that in normal people.
The phimosis is more harmful. In severe cases, it can lead to incarceration of phimosis, block local blood circulation, and cause ischemia and necrosis of the distal tissue of incarceration, which can cause serious consequences.
The problem of prepuce and phimosis will not only affect the health of men themselves, but also affect their loved ones. The prepuce and phimosis can bring pathogens into the vagina of women through sexual contact, which can cause vaginitis and cervicitis. Long-term stimulation can also induce vaginal cancer and directly threaten life. The problem of prepuce and phimosis should not be underestimated. Male friends should not have psychological burden, and go to the regular hospital for treatment as soon as possible to give you a better life and work environment.
Men with long foreskin should go to the hospital for surgical treatment as soon as possible and undergo circumcision. For the long, non-inflammatory prepuce, as long as the prepuce is often turned up and cleaned, surgery is not necessary.
