Some men have a long foreskin. In this way, when they have sex, they may bleed because of the tearing of the foreskin, or even suffer from serious diseases. Even in daily life, too long foreskin can easily cause diseases of the reproductive system, because it is easy to accumulate some dirt when the foreskin is long, so we should go for male foreskin surgery in time. So, what should we pay attention to in prepuce surgery?
What are the precautions for prepuce surgery?
1. Does excessive prepuce have any effect on health?
Long male foreskin may increase children's chances of getting urinary tract infection, and may also cause local foreskin and glans infection and inflammation. Therefore, too long foreskin may have some effects on health, which deserves attention. In addition, local cleaning is an important key to prevent foreskin disease. When the foreskin is too long, remember to turn it over and wash it every day.
2. If you want to circumcise, when is it better to have surgery?
Generally speaking, prepuce surgery should be performed before and after puberty without general anesthesia. However, if the young boy has repeated inflammation or even urinary tract infection due to phimosis or long foreskin, he should be treated with surgery as soon as possible to remove the foreskin. Whether a newborn boy should undergo Steamed sandwich or not should be considered carefully because of many disputes and should not be decided hastily.
3. Should men be circumcised?
Not all men should be circumcised. For some reasons, such as religion or adult ceremony, people of some regions or races will make all men undergo circumcision. But from a medical point of view, there are several reasons for circumcision:
The adult's phimosis and penis still cannot show the glans when erecting.
Incarcerated phimosis is an emergency in urology.
Due to the long prepuce, the local sanitation becomes worse.
Because the foreskin is too long, there is recurrent infection in the local area, even causing adhesion between the foreskin and the glans.
The opening of phimosis is too small, resulting in small urine flow.
4. What should I pay attention to before and after the foreskin operation?
During the prepuce operation, the doctor will give appropriate anesthesia according to the patient's situation. In order to avoid the vomiting reaction caused by the patient's inadaptability to narcotic drugs, the doctor should fast for four to six hours before the operation; After surgery, after the anesthetic effect subsides, the wound will have slight pain and bruise. You should take medicine regularly. Usually, the symptoms will subside after three days, and the wound will recover after seven to ten days. Before wound healing, follow up and recheck regularly according to the doctor's instructions. In addition, the wound after the operation should be kept clean and dry. Please be careful not to wet the gauze when urinating. If the gauze is soaked in urine, you can take it off first, and then return to the clinic for dressing change.
After the operation, the patient should observe in the hospital for a period of time, first, to be able to safely pass the anesthesia period, and second, to observe whether the operation is successful. After observing for a period of time and confirming that nothing has happened, you can work and study normally at home without any impact. If you find your penis bleeding, you must go back to the hospital for re-examination.
