We say that diseases that threaten male reproductive health and have a high incidence include erectile dysfunction and ejaculation disorders. Long foreskin and phimosis are relatively common male diseases, with an average of 1 in 5 males suffering from long foreskin and 1 in 20 males suffering from phimosis.
Redundant prepuce
The foreskin is located in the outer layer of the penis and tightly encloses the penis. It is not only an important component of the male reproductive organs, but also has important physiological significance. "Prolonged foreskin refers to a condition in which the glans is completely wrapped within the outer skin and cannot be fully exposed after the penis is fully erect, even when the penis is weak.". Phimosis is a disease in which the opening of the foreskin is too narrow to allow the penis and glans to be turned outside the foreskin by hand.
Foreskin scale
Although redundant foreskin and phimosis do not directly harm the male body in male diseases, their widespread incidence makes them common and harmful, and should not be underestimated.
After urination, the last few drops of urine in patients with long foreskin are not easily drained, and often accumulate within the foreskin. In addition, factors such as necrotic cells on the foreskin and glans surface, and subcutaneous gland substances secreted by the foreskin, as well as contamination and reproduction of the perineum of the rectum, can easily form a white membranous substance called foreskin scaling in warm and humid environments.
"If the foreskin scale is not thoroughly cleaned for a long time, it can stimulate the foreskin and glans, ultimately leading to other diseases, such as foreskin balanitis, foreskin stones, white spot disease caused by the peeling off of foreskin pigment, inducing premature ejaculation and penis cancer, long-term inflammation in local areas, impaired immune function, and more easily contracting sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea and condyloma acuminatum through unclean sexual life.", According to relevant data statistics, the probability of penile cancer in patients with redundant foreskin is dozens of times higher than that in normal people.
Phimosis is more harmful and can sometimes lead to phimosis incarceration. That is, when the opening of the phimosis is not very small, the penis erects, and the glans is occasionally exposed, but the narrow foreskin can become trapped in the coronal groove of the penis like a ring, causing local blood circulation disorders, causing ischemic necrosis of the embedded distal tissue, which can cause serious consequences. In addition, the foreskin can also induce diseases such as urinary retention and hydronephrosis.
Impact on sexual partners:
Long foreskin and phimosis not only seriously endanger the health of male patients, but also can be harmful to women through sexual life. Including being brought into the vagina during sexual life can cause vaginitis, cervicitis, long-term stimulation, and cervical cancer in women.
Therefore, male friends should go to a regular hospital for circumcision as soon as possible, and surgically remove excess foreskin.
