Xiaobian once said that foreskin and phimosis troubled many male friends. Some men will be treated by surgery, and some men have not been treated because they are embarrassed to speak or for other reasons, which delays the best treatment time, because no matter what disease has its best treatment period, so when is the best treatment period for prepuce and phimosis? Let's see what experts say:
The best treatment time for different patients is also different
If some infants do not urinate 2-3 days after birth, the outer mouth of the phimosis is like a pinhole, often accompanied by lipid contamination. After phimosis expansion, the dirt will be peeled off, and the urine will be smooth after washing. At the age of 3-4, due to the growth of penis and glans, penis erection, many children's foreskin can be turned up by themselves, and the glans will be exposed when the foreskin is turned out. If the penis head is still not exposed at this time, you should go to the hospital for examination in time. Once the diagnosis is that the phimosis or the foreskin is too long, you should do circumcision as soon as possible.
If there is acute inflammation at the prepuce of the penis, circumcision should not be performed. At this time, circumcision should be performed after the inflammation is cured. If the foreskin of the penis has chronic inflammation and cannot be cured for a long time, circumcision should be performed at this time regardless of age. This will not only help control inflammation, but also effectively prevent the occurrence of penis cancer.
Experts pointed out that the acquired phimosis mostly secondary to the foreskin inflammation and the injury of the foreskin and penis caused by the long foreskin. There is cicatricial contracture at the prepuce mouth, the elasticity and expansion of the skin are lost, and the prepuce cannot be turned up, often accompanied by urethral stricture. Acquired phimosis can be cured by prepuce and phimosis surgery.
Different patients have different phimosis conditions and need to be treated at different times. Therefore, patients must go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and take appropriate treatment after detailed analysis of the condition.
Precautions after prepuce operation
Post-operation nursing is very important, which not only affects the treatment effect, but also affects the health of patients, causing various complications. So, what care is more important after prepuce surgery?
1. For patients to prevent edema, what nursing care is more important after prepuce surgery? Postoperative edema is a normal phenomenon. Experts said that mild edema of the penis within 3 to 4 days after the operation of long foreskin is a normal phenomenon. This is the body reaction caused by anesthetic and surgery. Note that the swelling is pink at this time. Take a sedative such as Diazepam 2.5 mg before going to bed to prevent the penis from erecting, causing pain or bleeding.
2. Do not wet the dressing when the patient urinates after the operation. In order to avoid infection, it is necessary to do so. If it has been soaked in urine, it should be replaced as soon as possible. You can prepare 75% alcohol or 1:1000 bromogeramine cotton ball or isotonic saline cotton ball to scrub around the urethra after urination to keep the wound dressing clean.
3. What care is more important after prepuce operation? The patient should wear looser clothes after the operation. The expert said that after the operation, the doctor usually put a gauze curtain on the perineum after dressing the wound to reduce the friction of the penis.
4. After the operation, patients also need to pay attention to the reasonable arrangement of diet. Experts pointed out that the nursing after the operation is very important. After one month of the operation, patients can resume their sexual life. Do not eat spicy food, and do not drink and smoke heavily.
When is the best treatment period for prepuce and phimosis? Of course, different patients have different treatment periods, but as parents' friends, you can observe your baby. If the baby is foreskin and phimosis, it is better to treat it as soon as possible. It is also better to make a warm reminder that all foreskin and phimosis patients or parents' friends must go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment to minimize the pain of the patient.
