Urology experts believe that phimosis is far more harmful than long foreskin, which will have a certain impact on the health of the patient and his wife. For example:
Obstruction of development: With phimosis, the development of penis and glans is often restricted. Due to the restricted development, it looks like a small penis from the outside.
Infection: The sediment and urine scale in the urine accumulate in the foreskin and become bacterial culture agent, or cause infection and inflammation due to stimulation, and cause foreskin adhesion, and even cause infertility in severe cases.
Obstruction: Because the opening of the prepuce is too small, the prepuce cavity swells first and then empties. Backpressure occurs when urination is difficult. The weak part of the bladder wall protrudes due to high pressure, forming a bladder diverticulum; This kind of diverticulum has a very thin wall and is prone to rupture due to trauma. In severe cases and for a long time, it will cause ureteral dilation and hydronephrosis. Due to the difficulty of urination and the increase of abdominal pressure, there may be anal prolapse or hernia formation, and sometimes there may be "diverticulous double urination".
Stone: After inflammation, the epithelial cells of the mucous membrane fall off and form prepuce stones as the central nucleus. Most parents feel very anxious when they find that there is a small lump in the foreskin cavity of their child. In fact, the stone can be removed as long as the phimosis ring is slightly expanded.
Sexually transmitted diseases: the foreskin is too long or the phimosis is due to the fact that the inner plate and glans are often in a humid environment, and it is easy to suffer from sexually transmitted diseases such as condyloma acuminatum and gonorrhea, and because the parts cannot be thoroughly cleaned, it is also easy to make the wife suffer from the same sexually transmitted diseases as men.
Chronic inflammation of the penis caused by phimosis is often an important cause of penile cancer. Therefore, in addition to the physiological phimosis of children, pathological phimosis should be actively treated by surgery. At present, the phimosis plastic surgery carried out by Renai Hospital has no pain, and the postoperative recovery is also very fast. Welcome the majority of patients to visit.
