Cracking of the foreskin may be related to diabetes, but also may be related to fungal infections as well as phimosis, further analysis is needed to make a clear diagnosis.
1. Diabetes: diabetic patients with poorly controlled blood glucose levels will cause excess sugar in the tissue interstitial space, causing a large number of pathogenic microorganisms to multiply, causing recurrent inflammation of the foreskin, and even causing the phenomenon of foreskin cracking.
2. Fungal infection: if men are infected with fungi, causing fungal glans phimosis, it will also cause the foreskin and glans to appear peeling as well as flaking symptoms, and some patients may even have a cracked foreskin phenomenon.
3. Phimosis: will lead to the foreskin can not be turned upward, resulting in the glans can not be exposed, resulting in the glans and the foreskin between the presence of a large number of pathogenic microorganisms in the foreskin, glans cell shedding and urea deposition under the influence of the foreskin, will lead to the foreskin and glans to be stimulated by the inflammation of the foreskin and the glans, resulting in the foreskin cracking.
It is recommended that patients with cracked foreskin go to regular hospitals to receive further examination, clear the cause of the disease and then actively treat it, so as to avoid affecting the health of the body.
