The foreskin is located in the anterior position of the male reproductive organs and tightly encloses the penis. It is an important component of the male reproductive organs and has important physiological significance. Phimosis is a disease in which the opening of the same foreskin is too narrow, preventing the penis and glans from being exposed outside the foreskin.
Some people believe that phimosis and excessive foreskin do not interfere with sexual life and fertility, so they are not a genital disease. In fact, this view is not scientific. Because, whether it's phimosis or excessive foreskin, it's harmful to the human body.
1、 Hazards:
Although redundant prepuce and phimosis are minor ailments in male diseases, their widespread incidence makes them common and extremely harmful, and it should not be underestimated. Patients with redundant prepuce cannot easily discharge the last few drops of urine after urination, often accumulating within the prepuce, in addition to factors such as necrotic cells and secreting mucus on the surface of the prepuce and glans, as well as contamination and reproduction of the rectum and perineum, In warm and humid environments, it is extremely easy to form a white film like substance - foreskin scale. "If the foreskin scale is not thoroughly cleaned for a long time, it can stimulate the foreskin and glans, and ultimately lead to other diseases, such as foreskin balanitis, foreskin stones, and white spot disease caused by the peeling off of foreskin pigment, leading to premature ejaculation and penis cancer. Local chronic inflammation and immune dysfunction are also more likely to result in sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea and condyloma acuminatum through unclean sexual life.".
2、 Treatment:
After suffering from redundant foreskin and phimosis, the clinical manifestations are mostly localized inflammation, which repeatedly forms scales and can have a peculiar smell. Therefore, some patients will take some antibiotic drugs themselves, plus external washing and cleaning. Although this method of treating symptoms without curing the root cause can quickly control the inflammation, the above symptoms appear after a period of time. Moreover, due to resistance to antibiotics, the use of antibiotic drugs often worsens the condition of foreskin balanitis caused by fungal infections. Therefore, for patients with long foreskin and phimosis, it is necessary to thoroughly eliminate the excessive foreskin or phimosis from the root through surgery on the basis of cleaning and anti-inflammatory treatment. This is currently a relatively effective method.
