The foreskin, as the name implies, is the layer of skin that is wrapped around the head of a man’s penis and can be moved around. For newborns and infants, a long foreskin is a normal phenomenon that can prevent the delicate little glans from receiving injuries from foreign objects when the child is “groping”, while wrapping diapers, the foreskin can protect the glans from being exposed to urine for too long. The foreskin wraps around the entire glans of the child, the inner plate of the foreskin and the surface of the glans have a mild epithelial adhesion, 3-4 years after birth due to penile development, penile erection, the fiber adhesion between the foreskin and glans is gradually absorbed, to puberty penile development accelerated, the glans and foreskin gradually separate and retreat, revealing the glans.
Therefore, if in the process of growing into a man from a small boy, the glans is still completely wrapped around the foreskin in a soft state, and after the penis is fully erected; the glans is still not fully visible is circumcised. If at the same time the foreskin mouth is narrow and cannot be turned up to the coronal groove of the penis to reveal the glans, it is a prepuce. This becomes the two most common male diseases and is extremely harmful.
The last few drops of urine are not easily drained after urination, and often accumulate in the foreskin, plus the necrotic cells and secreted mucus substances on the surface of the foreskin and glans are very likely to form a white film-like substance – foreskin scale in a warm and moist environment. If the foreskin scale is not thoroughly cleaned for a long time, it will stimulate the foreskin and glans, which can eventually lead to other diseases, such as glansitis, foreskin stones, foreskin pigment shedding to form the white spot disease. The local long-term inflammation, immune dysfunction, through the unclean sex life is also more likely to catch gonorrhea, condyloma acuminata and other sexually transmitted diseases.
In adolescence, because the head of the penis is tightly wrapped by the foreskin, do not get due stimulation from the outside world, the development of the head of the penis is greatly constrained, resulting in the development of mature sex organs, the circumference of the crown of the penis is obviously small, affecting sexual pleasure, inducing premature ejaculation, affecting normal sex life, especially in men with a small caliber of foreskin, the foreskin flip up can not be recovered, the foreskin stuck tightly in the coronal groove, into an embedded prepuce, painful. The first thing that you need to do is to get the foreskin back on, and it will be a painful experience. In serious cases, the glans will occur due to poor blood flow and edema, and even glans necrosis can occur. The place where the glans is covered by the foreskin “hides dirt”, which can easily cause vaginitis, cervicitis, and even cervical cancer in the sexual partner. According to another study, the chance of penile cancer in circumcised patients is tens of times higher than that of normal people.
Therefore, adult men with long foreskin and circumcision must be treated as early as possible and circumcised. However, circumcision still has strict indications and it is inappropriate to routinely and non-therapeutically circumcise young boys or even baby boys. Medical societies in the United States, Canada, and Australia do not recommend infant circumcision, and some have even denounced non-therapeutic infant circumcision as a human rights violation akin to female genital mutilation. In our country, most people are unaware of the religious implications of circumcision, and it is not correct that the procedure is popularly performed in the face of one-sided propaganda from some medical authorities about the benefits of circumcision.
For baby boys and small boys with long foreskin or prepuce, there is no need to rush surgery, parents have to do is to closely observe the situation of the baby boy’s penis, after six months, every few days after the child’s bath, you can try to turn the foreskin of the penis by hand, pay attention to the magnitude is not large, can not be forced to turn up, slightly reveal part of the glans, to facilitate cleaning can be, cleaning, the action should be light, avoid using liquids and soaps containing medicinal ingredients, so as not to cause When cleaning, you should be gentle and avoid using liquid and soap containing medicinal ingredients to avoid trauma, irritation and allergic reaction. After cleaning, dry gently and flip the foreskin back gently. By about two years old, the foreskin should be able to be turned up, but should be turned back in time so as not to cause foreskin impaction. If you can’t flip it after four years old, you should go to the hospital in time to seek medical advice, and if necessary, you need to take surgical treatment to avoid causing penile development disorders.
Therefore, the indications for surgery for circumcision and prepuce are: 1, adult male circumcision; 2, adult male circumcision, recurrent episodes of glansitis of the foreskin, or erection after the tether is too short or there is a ring narrowing affects sexual life; 3, young boys above the age of about 6 years old with circumcision or prepuce, recurrent episodes of glansitis of the foreskin and may affect development.
What are the potential benefits of circumcision for men: 1, eliminate the source of disease and prevent infection; foreskin and prepuce can cause local infection and upstream infection, such as glansitis, urethritis, cystitis, etc.
2, promote the growth and development of male genitalia; because after the surgery, the glans genitalia are exposed, often rubbing with underwear, unknowingly play a role in the growth and thickening.
3, to eliminate gynecological inflammation caused by long foreskin or prepuce; long skin prepuce is prone to cause gynecological disease in the lover, due to long foreskin or prepuce within the harbor of foreskin scale, a large number of bacteria and pathogenic microorganisms through sexual life caused by vaginal, uterine, adnexitis.
4, reduce impotence, premature ejaculation: long foreskin and prepuce cause urethritis, phimosis, phimosis, inflammation of the glans or foreskin, multiple sclerosis, chronic prostatitis, etc. can reflexively affect the spinal cord center, causing premature ejaculation. The harm is serious among many male diseases. It destroys the harmony of sexual life and brings damage to the relationship between husband and wife.
5, reduce the risk of infertility; because the circumcision is too long to cause infertility, such as causing testicular, epididymis, prostatitis, etc..
On the basis of the traditional circumcision is improved, and at the same time the appearance of male genitalia is reshaped and restored, using polymer absorbable suture, no need to remove stitches after surgery, making it beautiful and generous, improving the quality of male sexual life, praised by the majority of male friends and parents.
