Parents generally pay more attention to the reproductive health of girls. For boys, they often think it is not important. Actually, this is wrong. When boys were young, the foreskin of the penis was covered with glans. It is not only high in temperature and humidity, but also because the urine is blocked by the foreskin, which is easy to cause bacterial reproduction and foreskin inflammation. Due to the unclean state during the long reproductive health period, there is a white scale in the foreskin, which is not only harmful to reproductive health, but also carcinogenic. So boys should also develop the habit of cleaning their lower body, especially the glans.
In early childhood, parents should often gently open the foreskin, expose the glans and wash it with clean warm water. Clean gently; There is no need to use drugs or liquid or soap containing drug ingredients. It should be noted that the prepuce turnover should be very gentle. Boys who are born with too tight or too narrow prepuce mouth should not be forced to turn over to avoid injury or incarcerated phimosis. If the child has difficulty turning over, he/she should go to the hospital at the age of 4-6 years before school age to take timely measures for phimosis surgery.
Epidemic mumps is a common disease in children. In recent years, due to timely vaccination, the incidence rate has been greatly reduced, but sporadic cases still exist in some areas. This disease is often accompanied by meningitis and orchitis. The disease is viral infection, often accompanied by fever, parotid gland enlargement and other symptoms. Antifebrile drugs have no effect in the early stage of disease. This disease is an infectious disease, and there is often a history of exposure to this disease. The fever temperature of the disease is generally above 39 degrees Celsius, and the blood examination is contrary to bacterial infection, which is manifested by leukopenia. Once these characteristics occur, antiviral drugs or heat-clearing and detoxicating Chinese herbs should be used as soon as possible to prevent complications. Testitis caused by parotitis often destroys the function of germ cells in the testis, leading to spermatogenesis disorder. Clinically, many patients with azoospermia are caused by mumps.
Sperm reduction and sperm quality decline are common. However, most of these cases have the opportunity to restore reproductive function. But some azoospermia is a headache, because among these patients, some male diseases can be found and treated in childhood, but there is no chance of cure in adulthood. Therefore, male reproductive health care should be paid attention to from an early age.
Testis is an important reproductive organ of boys, whose main function is to produce sperm and androgens. Whether its function is normal determines whether a boy's sexual function and fertility are normal when he grows up. After the baby boy is born, parents should consciously observe the child's scrotum to see if there are two peanut-sized testicles in the scrotum. Move gently when touching, because the testicles are full of pain. Move a little more, it will bring pain. If you don't touch the testicles, you should pay attention. Generally, about 3% of boys' testicles do not fall into the scrotum after birth, but complete the process of testicular decline 1-2 months after birth. If the male baby still lacks testicles in the scrotum after three months of birth, he should go to the hospital for examination, because this may be the cryptorchidism that will affect future fertility. Don't underestimate cryptorchidism, which not only causes infertility, but also induces testicular tumors. Cryptorchidism is not terrible. As long as we take timely surgical measures, we can rest assured.
The little boy was naughty and active when he was young. He was easy to hurt his testicles. We should pay enough attention to it. In surgical clinic, cases of scrotal and testicular injuries can often be seen. The scrotum is the barrier of the testis and has many functions such as protection, support, suspension, temperature regulation, etc. The protection of the scrotum is an important part of the protection of the testis. It is worth emphasizing that the function of scrotum to regulate body temperature is very unique, which is unmatched by any organ of the human body. With the increase of external temperature, the scrotal skin becomes thin as paper and quickly dissipates heat; When the external temperature decreases, the scrotal skin shrinks and has a good heat preservation effect.
The temperature in the scrotum is almost a constant temperature zone, always around 33 ℃. This temperature is 3-4 degrees lower than the body temperature, which is the most suitable physiological condition for testicular development and spermatogenesis after puberty. It can also be said that maintaining such a temperature is both a physiological need and a reproductive need. Some parents do not know this truth. They are afraid that the child will freeze. They often wrap the boy's genitals too tightly and tightly, which is very detrimental to maintaining the normal function of the testicles. Some parents like to take a hot bath and often take their children with them. This is very wrong. Too high water temperature is very dangerous, because the little boy can't stand such temperature, which often brings trouble to the future fertility. Generally, you can take a bath properly, and don't soak in water above 33 ℃ for a long time, so as not to cause trouble for future fertility.
