Pathogenic bacteria can also cause urinary tract infections through the urethra. Urethral orifice inflammation, urethral orifice stenosis after healing, Dysuria.
2. Impact on penile development: During adolescence, the glans penis is tightly surrounded by the foreskin and cannot receive external stimulation. The hair growth of the penis is greatly constrained, and the circumference of the crown of the penis is significantly smaller after the sexual organs mature, affecting sexual pleasure. Excessive foreskin or phimosis in adults can affect normal sexual activity. Especially for men with too small prepuce diameter, the prepuce cannot be recovered, the prepuce is firmly stuck in the Corona of glans penis, and the phimosis is embedded, causing little pain. In severe cases, the glans may become swollen and even necrotic due to poor blood flow.
