This is a focus issue that many female friends who experience excessive foreskin are particularly concerned about. So, what's the harm of having a male friend with an excessively long foreskin? For male friends, many times they are embarrassed to open their mouths and miss the best time for treatment. Among them, excessive prepuce length is an abnormal symptom that many men experience. Excessive prepuce length refers to the fact that the prepuce covers the urethral orifice but can turn up, exposing the urethral orifice and penis head, but often accompanied by phimosis.
What are the hazards of male circumcision
1. Cause foreskin inflammation
"The secretion of the foreskin itself contains germicidal components, but due to the humid and moist environment of the foreskin cavity, bacteria can more easily reproduce here.". If the growth of bacteria exceeds the self purification function of the foreskin, then inflammation of the foreskin may occur. There are many secretory glands on the inner plate of the foreskin, and the secretion can play a lubricating role. The accumulation of secretion, which cannot be cleaned and removed normally, can also facilitate the proliferation of bacteria, causing foreskin inflammation.
2. Affecting the development of the penis and causing disharmony in sexual life
It affects the growth and development of the penis. During puberty, due to the tight wrapping of the penis head by the foreskin and the lack of external stimulation, the development of the penis head is greatly constrained, resulting in a significantly smaller circumferential diameter of the crown of the penis after the maturity of the sexual organs, affecting sexual pleasure. Adults may have a long foreskin or phimosis that affects their normal sexual life. Especially for men with a small diameter of the foreskin, the upturned foreskin cannot be restored, and the foreskin is tightly stuck in the coronal groove, forming an incarcerated phimosis, causing less pain. In severe cases, glans edema may occur due to poor blood flow, and even glans necrosis may occur.
3. Inflammation of the penis
Due to the abundant sebaceous glands in the foreskin, a large amount of sebum can be secreted. "When the phimosis or foreskin is too long, the secretion of the sebaceous glands within the foreskin cannot be discharged, and the deposits in the sebum and urine synthesize a cheesy and odorous" foreskin scale ".". Scald on the foreskin is suitable for bacterial growth and can cause inflammation of the penis and foreskin. Germs can also cause urinary tract infections through the urethra. Inflammation that occurs at the urethral orifice can cause narrowing of the urethral orifice after healing, causing difficulty in urination.
Increase the risk of cancer
Modern scientific research has shown that foreskin scaling is a carcinogen. According to surveys, 85% to 95% of patients with penile cancer have phimosis or excessive foreskin. "Prolonged phimosis and foreskin not only affect one's health, but also can bring foreskin dirt into the vagina, stimulating the uterus, and inducing cervical cancer if one sleeps with his wife.". If there is inflammation in the foreskin that cannot be operated on early, the vulva should also be kept clean. Wash the penis once a day, do not flip the foreskin with your hands, do not apply drugs indiscriminately, and do not be credulous of any "prescription". Please go to the hospital in a timely manner and ask a doctor for treatment. After the inflammation disappears, perform the operation again.
