Four possible hazards caused by phimosis
1、 Influence on reproductive health: sebum produced by the foreskin of phimosis patients, together with urine and exfoliated cells of penile epithelium, can easily form yellow-white foreskin dirt, which can accumulate in the foreskin. If it cannot be eliminated in time, it is easy to breed bacteria and cause diseases such as foreskin and penitis.
2、 May cause premature ejaculation: the foreskin wraps the glans for a long time, which will make the glans very sensitive. During sexual life, the penis erection will expose the glans. When the glans and vagina are rubbed and stimulated, the glans mucous membrane nerve will be too sensitive to cause premature ejaculation, thus causing premature ejaculation.
3、 May cause cancer: phimosis may also cause penis cancer
In men with penile cancer, the glans is stimulated by the foreskin scale for a long time, which can cause chronic prepuce penis inflammation, which is an important factor for cancer. According to relevant data, about 90% of men with penile cancer have redundant foreskin or phimosis.
4、 Influence on the development of the glans: The patients with phimosis are prone to recurrent urethral mouth infection, which can easily cause adhesion between the foreskin and glans mucosa, which can affect the normal development of the glans, and serious glans deformity.
Precautions before phimosis operation
1、 Clean genitals
Before phimosis surgery, it should be noted that the genitals should be soaked with warm water or potassium permanganate solution every day from 3 days before surgery. During cleaning, the foreskin should be turned over to expose the coronal groove and thoroughly remove the foreskin scale. However, it should be noted that the foreskin should be reset in time after cleaning to avoid incarceration of penis foreskin.
2、 Eliminate tension
Because the wound will be uncomfortable in the first few days after the operation, some people worry that it will affect sexual function after the operation. This idea is unnecessary. Generally speaking, circumcision will not affect normal sexual function. On the contrary, before phimosis surgery, it should be noted that if you carry a mental baggage, it may cause mental dysfunction.
3、 When selecting the appropriate operation
Before phimosis surgery, it should be noted that if there is acute infection in the foreskin, the operation should not be performed until the inflammation subsides; If there is chronic inflammation in the foreskin and it does not heal for a long time, surgery should be performed as early as possible regardless of age, which is beneficial to the control of inflammation. If the foreskin is too long or phimosis affects sexual life after marriage, or causes infertility, surgery should also be taken.
