The prepuce and phimosis is a common phenomenon in men. The long prepuce and phimosis have a huge impact on the health of the male reproductive and urinary system. Experts said that men with long prepuce and phimosis should be circumcised in time. What are the symptoms of phimosis?
1. Refers to those whose foreskin still cannot turn over to the coronary groove after three years old. Sometimes the foreskin mouth is as small as the tip of a needle, which hinders the development of the penis. When urinating, urine accumulates in the foreskin, making the foreskin swell as a ball. This kind of phimosis should be circumcised before the age of 9, otherwise it will easily cause prepuce balanitis and urethral stricture. The accumulation of foreskin scale can form foreskin scale stone, and long-term stimulation can induce Ca change. Chronic dysuria can affect renal function. Children can cause frequent urination and bed-wetting at night.
2. The symptoms of phimosis are still very obvious. The patient's foreskin mouth is narrow and pinhole-like. When urinating, the foreskin expands like a ball, and the urine flow is slow, causing different degrees of dysuria. The symptoms of phimosis are harmful, and the long-term development can form penile foreskin inflammation, inflammatory foreskin mouth swelling, and purulent secretion.
3. The foreskin is too long because of trauma and infection, resulting in the formation of scar at the foreskin mouth, resulting in narrow foreskin mouth, and the foreskin cannot be turned up. This kind of phimosis is called secondary phimosis and requires circumcision.
4. The phimosis can form incarcerated phimosis. When the penis is erect, the foreskin can not turn down after turning up, and the foreskin mouth gets stuck in the glans, forming incarcerated phimosis. At this time, the glans will have edema due to poor blood flow, severe pain, and difficulty in urination, which will cause incarcerated foreskin necrosis for a long time, which is also a symptom of foreskin.
5. There is slight adhesion between the inner surface of the prepuce and the surface of the glans of the newborn, which prevents the prepuce from turning over to the coronal groove. This kind of phimosis is called physiological phimosis. It will disappear naturally with the absorption of epithelial adhesion within 2-3 years after birth.
6. The symptoms of male phimosis should be different from that of long prepuce. The phimosis can form prepuce scale, presenting white small lump symptoms. When checking the phimosis, observe the size of the prepuce mouth, and turn the prepuce up to make a judgment. When embedding the phimosis, the edematous prepuce turns over at the coronal groove of the penis head, and the narrow ring can be seen at its upper edge, and the penis head is dark purple.
The symptoms of male phimosis are introduced here. Everyone often has a panic mood after the disease. Finally, experts remind everyone here that once the disease symptoms occur, they should go to a professional hospital for examination and treatment in time.
