"I believe that there are not many male friends I believe I know about when it comes to having too long foreskin," said male experts, as in recent years, relevant surveys have found that there are more and more male friends with too long foreskin. ". "Prolonged foreskin refers to the condition where the penis is weak and the glans is wrapped within the outer skin, and some glans still cannot appear after the penis is fully erect.". What harm will be caused if the foreskin is too long and not treated in time?
Risk of cancer:
Prolonged foreskin and phimosis may induce penile cancer. Modern scientific research has shown that foreskin scaling is a carcinogen. According to surveys, 85% to 95% of patients with penile cancer have phimosis or excessive foreskin.
Inflammation of the penis:
There are abundant sebaceous glands in the foreskin that can secrete a large amount of sebum. "When the phimosis or foreskin is too long, the secretion of the sebaceous glands within the foreskin cannot be discharged, and the deposits in the sebum and urine synthesize a cheesy and odorous" foreskin scale ".". Scald on the foreskin is suitable for bacterial growth and can cause inflammation of the penis and foreskin.
Obstructs penis development and affects sexual harmony:
Phimosis can affect the growth and development of the penis. During puberty, due to the tight wrapping of the penis head by the foreskin and the lack of external stimulation, the development of the penis head is greatly constrained, resulting in a significantly smaller circumference of the crown of the penis after the maturity of the sexual organs, affecting sexual pleasure.
Impairment of renal function:
Due to inflammation of the penis, it can cause stricture of the urethral orifice or anterior urethra, causing difficulty in urination. If urination is difficult for a long time, the function of the kidney will be damaged.
Experts say: I believe that through the above introduction, male friends have a certain understanding of the dangers of excessive foreskin. Therefore, male friends must attach great importance to the treatment of excessive foreskin.
Long foreskin teaches you how to self correct
Prolonged adolescence can be self corrected through techniques. The method is to gently and slowly turn the foreskin up two or three times with your hand during urination every day, keep the glans exposed for a while, and then release your hand.
After several months of this, the glans develops rapidly due to full exposure. As the body develops and grows, the edges protrude, and the foreskin does not recover. Usually, even in adulthood, due to the expansibility of the foreskin, manipulation can still be used to correct the defect of excessive foreskin. Only a few people really need surgical treatment.
"If the correction is not effective, surgery should still be performed in a timely manner, while this self correction method is not suitable for severe phimosis, otherwise incarceration may occur, leading to glans edema, and accidents.". The operation of circumcision is very simple, and can be completed within ten minutes after local anesthesia. It can be performed in the surgical outpatient department of a general hospital, without the need for hospitalization. It is recommended that those with excessive foreskin or phimosis, especially those with chronic foreskin balanitis, should not be afraid of medical treatment and should remove this root cause that is detrimental to themselves and their wives as soon as possible.
It is worth noting that self correction of redundant prepuce is a gradual process that cannot be rushed to success. Before each correction, pay attention to hygiene and wash your hands and vulva all day to avoid infection.
