"Prolonged prepuce refers to the fact that the prepuce covers the urethral orifice, but can turn upward, exposing the urethral orifice and penis head, often accompanied by phimosis.". This disease is genetically related and can be divided into true and false redundant prepuces. Patients with excessive foreskin should be treated with surgery as soon as possible. For non inflammatory foreskin that is too long, as long as the foreskin is often turned upside down and cleaned, surgery may not be necessary.
pathogeny:
Excessive foreskin is caused by genetic inheritance from parents.
harm:
1、 Induce foreskin inflammation of the penis, with a narrow outer orifice of the urethra, and an excessively long foreskin that can easily accumulate foreskin dirt under the skin, leading to bacterial infection, leading to foreskin inflammation of the penis. Inflammatory adhesions can affect the loosening of the foreskin, forming secondary phimosis, and even resulting in a narrow external orifice of the urethra.
2、 "This can lead to diseases such as impotence, premature ejaculation, and male infertility. If the foreskin is too long, the usual impact on the penile mucosa will be reduced, making the neural sensitivity of the penile mucosa too sensitive. During sexual life, the penis and vagina collide with each other, causing premature ejaculation and pain, and reducing sperm activity and semen viscosity, resulting in infertility.". This is the true cause of infertility in some patients clinically.
3、 Impairment of renal function, due to inflammation of the penis, may induce narrowing of the urethral orifice or anterior urethra, resulting in difficulty in urination. The long-term difficulty in urination of male buddies can damage renal function.
4、 There is a risk of cancer, what are the main damage caused by excessive foreskin? Scientific research has shown that foreskin scaling is a carcinogen, and excessive foreskin may induce penis cancer. According to a survey, 85% - 95% of patients with penile cancer have phimosis or excessive foreskin. "Prolonged phimosis and foreskin not only affect the health of men themselves, but also can bring foreskin dirt into a woman's vagina, affecting the uterus, and inducing cervical cancer in women if no measures are taken to cohabit with her wife.".
5、 Obstructs penis development and affects the coordination of sexual life. During puberty, due to the tight wrapping of the penis head by the foreskin, there is no proper external influence, and the development of the penis head is greatly bound, resulting in a significantly smaller circumference of the crown of the penis after sexual organ development and aging, which affects sexuality.
6、 Tumors, phimosis, or overlong foreskin are closely related to tumors. Most urologists and scholars believe that the formation of cancer is due to the pollution and slow impact of urine scale, which is the primary cause of penile papilloma and cancer. Although there are currently no sophisticated research results, treating redundant foreskin in advance is the best way to prevent the occurrence of tumors.
clinical manifestation:
Excessive prepuce length can be divided into true prepuce length and false prepuce length. The true foreskin is too long, and the glans cannot be fully exposed after the penis is erect; "Prolonged pseudoforeskin refers to the fact that the glans cannot be fully exposed at ordinary times, but can be fully exposed after the penis has been erected.".
diagnosis:
During puberty, the foreskin still surrounds the glans and cannot be exposed when erecting, but the glans can be exposed when flipping up with the hand, which can diagnose excessive foreskin.
Differential diagnosis:
It should be distinguished from phimosis. Phimosis refers to the inability of the foreskin to turn up and down, and the opening of the foreskin is very small. If the foreskin is too long, you can open it by hand to expose the glans.
Postoperative precautions
Attention must be paid to the following precautions after circumcision surgery, which can also help men recover their health as soon as possible. After completing the surgery, attention should be paid to:
1. Generally, you should go to the hospital for a dressing change three days after the operation. "After surgery, there may be slight pain and swelling in the wound. You should take painkillers regularly. As long as there is no infection after surgery, it can heal in about 7-10 days.".
2. "After circumcision, the wound should be kept clean and dry as much as possible. Be careful when urinating, and be careful not to use gauze. If you are not careful, the gauze must be replaced in a timely manner.".
3. After circumcision surgery, loose clothing should be worn. Generally, after dressing the wound, the doctor will place a gauze curtain to reduce the friction of the penis head.
4. Maintain a stable mood within a week after the foreskin surgery, prohibit cohabitation for 30 days, and try to avoid erections to avoid opening the incision, causing bleeding and infection. If an erection occurs, take a deep breath and come to the hospital for further consultation if necessary.
5. After circumcision surgery, take 1-2 days off. You can rest in bed, surf the Internet, or read a book. Try not to walk around as much as possible to prevent bleeding from activities after surgery
