Too long foreskin is the most common problem among male friends. Many people think that too long foreskin should have no impact on life, so they often ignore the potential harm caused by too long foreskin. So, can it be true that the foreskin is too long to be removed? If it is not removed, what impact will it have on health?
Prolonged prepuce induces inflammation, premature ejaculation and penis cancer
Many patients with long foreskin will have sex for a short time, even less than 2 minutes. At the same time, because the foreskin wraps the glans for a long time, it is easy to cause inflammation, etc., we recommend immediate removal. Most of the foreskin and phimosis are congenital (primary), and a few are secondary (referring to phimosis, the foreskin is too long, often inflamed, the foreskin glans sticks, and the foreskin mouth becomes smaller, which is secondary phimosis). If the foreskin is not removed in time, it may cause various hazards over time:
1. Cause all kinds of inflammation: a white secretion is secreted in the foreskin, that is, foreskin scaling. The foreskin scale stimulates the penis for a long time, especially the coronal sulcus, which is easy to cause the foreskin balanitis. The bacterial infection in the foreskin cavity will also cause cystitis, pyelonephritis and prostatitis.
2. Encapsulation of phimosis: some patients not only have long foreskin, but also have narrow foreskin mouth, forming phimosis. When the penis is erect, the foreskin cannot be turned down after it is turned up, and the foreskin mouth gets stuck in the glans, forming a phimosis incarceration. At this time, glans edema will occur due to poor blood flow, and glans necrosis may occur in severe cases.
3. Reduce the quality of sexual life: repeated prepuce inflammation can easily lead to the adhesion of glans and prepuce, limit the erection of penis, and then cause pain during sexual intercourse. This will not only cause disharmony between husband and wife's life, but also cause male sexual dysfunction, such as impotence, premature ejaculation, weak and weak erection.
4. Induce infertility and penile cancer: prostatitis caused by infection of foreskin scale and bacterial infection of urinary system will cause sperm vitality decline or even sperm death, resulting in male infertility, and severe cases can induce penile cancer.
