Should circumcision be done for long foreskin? With the increasing number of men suffering from phimosis, many netizens have recently inquired online about whether all phimosis should be circumcised. Regarding the hot topic of whether all phimosis should be circumcised, experts have provided detailed explanations on whether all phimosis should be circumcised.
The harm of foreskin too long is great, so should all foreskin too long be cut? Experts say that circumcision is not necessarily necessary for long foreskin. So, which men need circumcision surgery?
1. There are often sexually transmitted diseases that recur locally on the foreskin, such as herpes and cauliflower, which are difficult to handle and require circumcision surgery.
2. If excessive foreskin affects sexual life, circumcision should also be considered.
3. Complete phimosis requires circumcision, which means that the foreskin covering the glans is not easily flipped over and cleaned.
What is the process of male circumcision surgery?
1. Cleaning and disinfection: Wash the area with soapy water and salt water, and disinfect with 1:1000 bromogeramide solution.
2. Separation of adhesion: For those with narrow foreskin opening and adhesion between the foreskin and the glans penis, first use hemostatic forceps to expand the foreskin opening, and then use two hemostatic forceps to clamp the middle of the dorsal edge. Use a slotted probe to separate the adhesion until the glans penis and the foreskin are completely separated.
3. Design incision: Use a hemostatic forceps to clamp the frenulum of the foreskin to lift it. Use the tip of the knife to make all marks at a distance of 0.5cm from the distal edge of the coronal sulcus on the outer plate of the foreskin, preparing it as a circumcision incision.
4. Dorsal incision: Use scissors to cut the inner and outer plates of the foreskin along the probe groove, and the inner plate of the foreskin should also be cut to a distance of about 0.5cm from the edge of the coronal sulcus.
5. Excision of foreskin: Align the inner and outer plates of the foreskin, pull out the hemostatic forceps clamped on the back and frenulum of the foreskin, and then recheck whether the incision marks on the outer plate of the foreskin are appropriate as a circumcision incision. If appropriate, use curved scissors to cut the right flap along the incision about 0.5cm from the coronal sulcus, and then cut the left flap again.
6. Suture: Use fine thread to first stitch one needle at the back, abdomen, left, and right of the circular incision. The ligation should not be too tight to prevent tissue edema from damaging the skin. Then stitch 1-2 stitches between every two stitches, with the stitches coming out close to the cutting edge.
7. Wrapping: Wrap a piece of Vaseline gauze (with raw edges stacked inside) around the incision of the foreskin, secure with a long seam, and then wrap with several layers of gauze.
