If the foreskin is too long, specific treatment methods should be taken according to the patient's situation. Next, we will work with experts to understand common methods for treating redundant prepuce.
Common methods for treating redundant prepuce
1. Daily cleaning. Cover the surface of the glans with a layer of white or milky white material that has a fishy odor but the foreskin is harmless to the body. You should wash the covering regularly to clean it. It is best to go to the hospital and solve the problem in a few minutes at a time. The operation is painless and does not affect daily life.
2. Conservative self therapy: Carefully turn the foreskin up to the coronal groove (the groove between the glans and penis) after urinating every day, before taking a nap or sleeping at night, and then let it slide naturally. With this method, because the exposed glans directly rubs against clothing, it may feel uncomfortable, especially when walking and exercising. However, after a week of persistence, the discomfort will gradually disappear, lasting for two or three months, and the foreskin will naturally turn up and no longer come down. Note: This prescription is only applicable to people with excessive foreskin and mild phimosis. Severe phimosis still requires surgical treatment.
3. Nowadays, the common method for treating redundant prepuce is to correct redundant prepuce by circumcision of the skin at the root of the penis. Make an incision at the base of the penis, push and pull the foreskin towards the base of the penis, and turn it over to expose the glans. Then, remove the excess skin and suture the incision.
Using this method of prepuce lengthening surgery will not damage the lymphatic vascular system beneath the penis, and there will be no blood and lymph reflux disorders after surgery; The inverted prepuce and prepuce frenulum are not damaged and maintain their natural appearance; No post erection pain; It will not cause circular scar contracture. The surgical method is simple, with minimal trauma, slight postoperative swelling, and short recovery time. These methods for treating excessive prepuce can effectively achieve therapeutic results.
In summary, the above common methods for treating redundant prepuces must be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor.
