Mr. Zhang, 28 years old, came to see a doctor after leaving work early today. He said, "He is a clean man who washes his private parts every day, but the glans is always smelly, not only smelly, but also white things, which is annoying. The doctor took him to the examination room to see, and soon understood what happened: the foreskin is too long.
Why does the foreskin smell when it grows?
The glans of normal adult male is generally naked, relatively dry and not easy to breed bacteria. However, the glans with a long foreskin is very wet, because the foreskin will secrete liquid or urine will flow back into it when urinating, which provides a good "hotbed" for bacteria, which constantly reproduce and die, and produce waste and ferment, like a small "garbage heap". Although it is cleaned every day, it can not clean all the bacteria. After a period of time, especially when immunity is low, bacteria, viruses and microorganisms will die, and the rapid metabolism will produce a lot of corrosion and give off odor. Not only affect yourself, but also may cause inflammation of sexual partners.
Surgical treatment is the best treatment
For patients with long foreskin, it is recommended to wash the glans and coronal groove with clean warm water every day. When washing, pay attention not to use too hard to avoid scratching the penis. Surgery is the best treatment for patients with recurrent inflammation. Long-term inflammation is very annoying, especially when the immune function is low. This is why many elderly men in their 60s and 70s still need to undergo foreskin surgery. In addition, repeated inflammation is also easy to induce penis cancer. Although its incidence rate is very low now, it cannot be avoided.
What are the common methods of circumcision?
Traditional circumcision
Traditional circumcision, also known as classical circumcision, is the earliest operation method in clinical application. It takes a long time to operate, has a lot of bleeding, and requires multiple dressing changes after operation, which is easy to form freckle edema and irregular scar on the cutting edge, most of which affect the movement, and is less used at present.
Ring circumcision
The method of circumcision refers to the circumcision with the help of the circumcision device. Its advantages are that the cutting edge is neat and the recovery is fast, but there is a necrotic foreskin at the far end after the operation. The pain before and after the necrotic foreskin falls off may cause some trouble to the patient, and the pain time may be even longer than the traditional circumcision.
Disposable circumcision
The disposable circumcision device refers to the circumcision with the help of the disposable circumcision device. It is a kind of minimally invasive surgery. It has the advantages of short operation time, less bleeding, short pain time and fast recovery, but its cost is relatively high.
Laser circumcision
Laser circumcision, that is, using laser to act on the prepuce to cut and carbonize the overlong prepuce tissue for a series of treatment and repair processes, has the advantages of less bleeding, shallow trauma, no need to remove the suture, short operation time, and so on. Due to the thermal damage of laser, there may be large postoperative reaction, late healing and other conditions.
Not everyone is suitable for circumcision
There are often many small fat people in the clinic. Because Ding Ding is small, he also comes to the hospital for circumcision. However, many small Ding Ding are not suitable for prepuce surgery, because they appear to have a long prepuce, but it is actually because Ding Ding retracts and cannot be exposed normally, which is called concealed penis in medicine. If circumcision is performed by mistake, skin grafting will be needed before expansion.
If the inflammation of prepuce and penis is complicated, the operation shall be performed after the inflammation subsides. For patients with prepuce penicillitis, if the inflammation does not subside, surgery will increase the chance of infection, which may have a certain impact on recovery.
How long can I have sex after circumcision?
Clinically, it is generally recommended to avoid sexual stimulation, sexual fantasy and suffocation within one week after circumcision, and to avoid affecting wound healing or rebleeding due to repeated erection of the penis; Forbid sexual life within 30 days after the operation to prevent the incision from cracking or bleeding. However, there are individual differences in wound healing, so it is necessary to communicate with the doctor in time after operation.
Can sexual life be prolonged after circumcision?
Due to the long foreskin covering the glans and coronal groove for a long time, it is less stimulated and highly sensitive, which is easy to form premature ejaculation. After circumcision, the patient's glans is just exposed, which may lead to more sensitive sexual life and shorter sexual life. With the long-term exposure of the glans and coronal sulcus, due to the friction and stimulation of clothes, erections, regression and erection occur repeatedly, which reduces its sensitivity, gradually prolongs the sexual life time, and has the effect of treating premature ejaculation.
