The reproductive health of children is a problem that you must attach great importance to
Science popularization of redundant prepuce
The Jewish people performed circumcision on the 8th day after the baby was born, and Muslim Muslims performed circumcision on on the 4th to 10th day of the baby.
In some European countries, "circumcision" still exists in many regions, that is, circumcision is performed on a newborn boy. This is one of the reasons why the penis length of men in Europe and America is generally higher than the average level.
Generally, the operation can be performed if the foreskin is too long for men over 6 years old, and because the foreskin and phimosis will cause various problems for men of different ages, the foreskin and phimosis operation can be performed.
Question 1: At what age is the best age for prepuce surgery?
The prepuce operation refers to the operation of redundant prepuce and phimosis. Generally, the best age for prepuce operation is from the childhood of 6 or 7 years old to the period before marriage (or sexual life).
Question 2: What kind of children can be circumcised?
1. Influence on urination: children's long prepuce often completely covers the urethral orifice, resulting in endless urination. There is often a small amount of urine residue in the prepuce cavity, and the prepuce and the urethral orifice are prone to inflammatory adhesion, which aggravates the difficulty of urination.
2. Influence on the growth and development of the penis: in adolescence, because the penis head is tightly wrapped by the foreskin and cannot be stimulated by the outside world, the development of the penis head is greatly constrained, resulting in a significantly smaller circumference of the crown of the penis head after the development of the sexual organs.
3. Produce foreskin scale, leading to balanitis: it is easy to produce "foreskin scale" with cheese-like odor. The foreskin scale is suitable for bacterial growth, so it can cause balanitis and foreskin inflammation.
4. Induce urinary tract infection: Inflammation at the urethral orifice can cause the urethral orifice to narrow after healing, resulting in difficulty in urination.
Pay attention to the urination and reproductive organs of the child from time to time. If the above similar conditions occur, please consult with a professional doctor in time.
Question 3: Is it really safe for children to undergo surgery?
The prepuce operation is a minor operation in clinical practice, and it is only done once in a lifetime. The operation only takes 15 minutes. It is minimally invasive, painless and risk-free. Parents can rest assured.
