I don't know whether it is the enhancement of people's awareness of health care, or whether people nowadays are too alarmist. Many dads, perhaps at risk of their own foreskin and phimosis, are afraid of passing it on to the next generation. Therefore, when the child was still very young, he made an appointment with a hospital for the treatment of foreskin and phimosis. As a result, a bitter smile couldn't be heard. The reason, you understand! Child, if you get a knife for no reason, you may still suffer from diseases due to premature foreskin surgery? So, should circumcision and phimosis surgery be done? When is the best time to do it?
Should circumcision and phimosis surgery be performed? "Many men have suffered enough from foreskin and phimosis, but it is important to remind them that foreskin surgery should not be done casually, as foreskin, although small, can have many functions.". The fusion of foreskin and glans helps to prevent the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms, and plays a covering and protective role on the penis, preventing the glans from being rubbed and injured by hard objects. The foreskin also has a certain secretory effect and has a certain immune function, which can prevent urinary system infections. In addition, foreskin is also conducive to penis erection and ejaculatory reflex.
Now that you know the function of foreskin, do you think foreskin and phimosis surgery should be performed? Although there are many functions of foreskin, once foreskin endangers reproductive health, it is necessary to quickly cut through the chaos. As a component of male genitalia, foreskin can cause chronic irritation such as foreskin scaling, leading to diseases such as balanitis and urethritis in men. Prolonged foreskin may impair renal function. Pathogenic bacteria can also cause urinary tract infections through the urethra. It can interfere with penis development and affect sexual harmony. In addition, when the phimosis or foreskin is too long, the secretion of the sebaceous glands within the foreskin cannot be discharged, which can cause inflammation of the penis and foreskin, leading to balanitis of the foreskin.
In addition, children are born with phimosis, most of which are physiological and generally have no abnormalities or discomfort. Starting from childhood, with the development of the penis, the foreskin opening begins to expand and the glans is exposed. Therefore, most physiological phimosis can heal themselves. Some preschool children do not need surgery to remove their pseudophimosis due to the lack of timely cleaning of secretions and adhesion of the foreskin to the glans. After puberty, if the foreskin still covers the urethral orifice while the penis is erect, it is considered to be too long. "If the foreskin is turned up without exposing the glans, and there is a narrow ring at the foreskin opening, this true phimosis requires surgical treatment.". What are the hazards of foreskin and phimosis? Should circumcision and phimosis surgery be performed? This is a question that needs to be analyzed on a case by case basis.
