Prepuce balanitis is a kind of genital inflammation. The normal prepuce cavity has formed prepuce scale over time. When the prepuce is too long, even when the length of the prepuce is long enough to cover the penis, such substances can accumulate into prepuce scale. If not effectively prevented, prepuce balanitis will occur. According to the survey of the domestic health organization, the high incidence rate of balanitis has seriously affected the daily life of men. When the World Health Organization first surveyed in 2004, the data showed that the incidence rate of balanitis was still 31.5% in that year. By 2007, the data had risen to 50.2%, and by 2010, the data had reached 61.8%. Moreover, the data of hospital visits in recent years showed that, This data is still on the rise.
Due to the influence of traditional concepts, the vast majority of patients talk about sexual discoloration, and are ashamed to even regard gender issues as obscene, which leads to a big gap in the prevention of prepuce balanitis. In fact, this is no different from doing all kinds of harm without any benefit. 36% of male genital diseases are related to prepuce. Among Chinese teenagers, the incidence rate of balanitis prepuce patients has reached 23.5%. Due to the weak medical and health awareness of Chinese teenagers, they have not been effectively prevented when the relevant signs of balanitis prepuce are revealed, and they regret it until the onset. According to the survey, 78% of balanitis prepuce patients can take some preventive measures at the initial stage of balanitis prepuce to avoid the onset of disease, So what tips should we pay attention to for this stubborn disease?
First of all, male friends should not neglect the care of their "lifeblood". According to the hospital survey of patients with foreskin balanitis, nearly 40% of the patients did not establish a strict sanitary cleaning procedure, which also contributed to the deterioration of foreskin balanitis. In fact, for foreskin balanitis, there are not too many complex requirements for cleaning, just need to turn the foreskin over frequently for cleaning.
If some patients' foreskin is too long to wash normally, then it is necessary to carry out surgical treatment. According to the survey, the peak age of the onset of prepuce balanitis is between 18 and 25 years old. In this age, timely detection of the disease and timely and effective surgical treatment will be of great help to completely cure the disease. According to the survey, 100% of the patients who originally suffered from prepuce balanitis have completely cured their own prepuce balanitis after taking surgery.
If the disease occurs suddenly and needs to be treated in time, it is also very important to know some common first-aid knowledge. The general treatment method is to use potassium permanganate solution with a concentration of 1:6000 to wash the affected area in time, so as to remove the foreskin scale on the surface first, and also take certain antibiotics to eliminate inflammation. Research shows that, 63% of patients with prepuce balanitis were treated with antibiotics. Of course, if the disease is serious, you need to go to the hospital immediately for further treatment.
