With the increase of age, a man's body will change a lot. In addition to the secondary sexual characteristics such as beard and armpit hair, the genitals will also change significantly. That is to grow bigger and longer, and the glans of normal men will also be exposed from the foreskin. Wait, why should I say normal men, not all men. Because, in this world, there is a disease, more precisely, it should be congenital deficiency, which is called prepuce phimosis, also known as redundant prepuce. So, how to count the foreskin as too long?
How to calculate the length of foreskin
After puberty, all or most of the glans will be exposed. However, some people cannot show their glans, and the foreskin still covers all or most of their glans. If the foreskin can be turned up by hand or the glans can be exposed when the foreskin is turned up after erection, it is called the foreskin is too long. After understanding how to calculate the length of foreskin, let's talk about the role of foreskin.
The foreskin is not redundant, but an important part of the male external genitalia, which can protect the penis and glans. The foreskin is too long to protect the penis for a long time, which is too sensitive to cause premature ejaculation; Men with long foreskin often neglect the cleaning of the inside of the foreskin. The crowding of the foreskin scale provides a good environment for the survival and reproduction of bacteria, which is easy to lead to various inflammation. Therefore, the foreskin is useful, but the foreskin is too long.
There are other opinions about how to calculate the length of foreskin. Too long prepuce refers to the prepuce covering the urethral orifice, but can turn up to expose the urethral orifice and penis head, but often accompanied by phimosis. According to the difference of male individual symptoms, the redundant prepuce can be divided into true redundant prepuce and false redundant prepuce. The true prepuce is too long, which means that the glans cannot be completely exposed even after the penis is erect; The false foreskin is too long, which means that the glans can not be completely exposed at ordinary times, but can be completely exposed after the penis is erect. So how to calculate the length of foreskin is also classified.
Prolonged prepuce is directly or indirectly related to many diseases of male genitourinary system. In many countries with a high level of medical development, circumcision is a conventional concept like the rite of passage, and plays a major role in the normal life of men and the prevention of diseases. Therefore, we should never take it lightly for the long foreskin.
