Adolescent boys are sensitive and curious. They are particularly concerned about their own sexual organs. Students are more enthusiastic about discussions and comparisons. Long foreskin is one of the themes. So, what about the long prepuce in adolescence?
What should I do if the prepuce is too long in adolescence? Generally speaking, urologists have a positive attitude towards the treatment of adult foreskin. To perform prepucectomy for children, general anesthesia is required. Unless the prepuce mouth is too narrow and causes dysuria and recurrent inflammation, urologists rarely recommend prepucectomy for children.
There is a simple way to check whether the foreskin is too long, that is, when erecting, the foreskin can retract to the back of the glans. If there is any difficulty, the foreskin is too long. If there is phimosis or incarcerated phimosis, it is better to accept surgical treatment. The so-called phimosis is that the outlet of the foreskin is too narrow to allow the whole glans to show; Embedding phimosis means that the foreskin is stuck after pulling to the glans and cannot return to its original position.
Long prepuce and phimosis are common phenomena in young men. How to do if the prepuce is too long in adolescence? If the simple foreskin is too long, we should establish good hygiene habits and wash regularly to keep the local clean and sanitary, which may have no impact on health. If phimosis, surgical treatment should be actively carried out.
Warm reminder:
The prepuce is too long. If the prepuce mouth is wide, it is easy to turn up and do not need surgery. However, it should be cleaned frequently and kept clean. If the foreskin is too long, the opening is small, or the foreskin of the penis is often infected, the foreskin can be soaked with 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution, or the infection can be controlled with antibacterial drugs before circumcision.
