The foreskin of boys is often a problem for many mothers, and half of the children seen in children’s surgery clinics during the holidays are “penis” visitors. Due to a lack of understanding of the disease and misleading TV commercials, many parents struggle with the question of “to cut or not to cut” the foreskin. From the anatomical point of view, for boys foreskin is innate, like wearing a “leather jacket” on the penis “body”, the foreskin on the glans forms a double layer of folds, like a “sandwich skin jacket “The inner layer of skin is called the inner plate, and the outer layer of skin is called the foreskin. The two layers of skin wrapped around the glans, at the end of the collection into a small mouth, called the foreskin mouth. So how to pediatric foreskin daily care? 1, if usually the pediatric foreskin completely covers the head of the penis and urethral orifice, this situation is called pediatric foreskin is too long. You can easily turn over the foreskin with your hand to reveal the glans, or the glans will be naturally exposed when the penis is erect. If you can’t reveal the glans, it’s called circumcision. 2, infancy and early childhood prepuce many belong to the physiological state, do not need to artificially turn up the child’s foreskin to clean the foreskin scale. As some parts of the foreskin lining have not yet separated from the glans, forcibly turning up the foreskin can cause tearing-like damage to the unseparated parts. This can cause the boy to experience great pain and can also cause trauma, increasing the risk of future infection. After three weeks of age parents can try to gently expand the foreskin mouth under the guidance of a physician, but never violence. 3, preschoolers and school-age children, when the care of the foreskin is very critical. In particular, some children with clear circumcision need to be surgically circumcised. And some foreskin mouth is still elastic, there is hope of expansion, can be under the guidance of the physician to carry out foreskin expansion, can also achieve the effect of treatment. 4. If infection occurs under the foreskin of a child, first control the infection with topical medication, such as boric acid powder solution cleaning, and then perform local cleaning after the edema has subsided. Since it is difficult for the physician to determine the presence of prepuce during the infection period, it is necessary to review after the edema subsides. 5, for the boy’s foreskin, parents should not carry out additional excessive cleaning and care. The child should receive the necessary treatment under the guidance of the physician according to his condition. If the foreskin and penis are repeatedly stimulated on a regular basis, it will cause a strange sensation in the child and increase the child’s bad habit of playing with his own penis. 6, a few notes on pediatric circumcision: for children with pediatric prepuce, after 3 to 4 years of age, if there is no significant change in the treatment, especially often red and inflamed, it is recommended to perform circumcision to avoid repeated infections, redness and swelling of the foreskin, resulting in retrograde infection, causing inflammation of the urethra or bladder. Some parents are afraid of surgery and want conservative treatment. Then, for children with prepuce, where the foreskin opening is still elastic and there is hope for expansion, parents can try cleaning care at home. First try to turn the foreskin up repeatedly to expand the foreskin opening. This process should be gentle and should be done appropriately each time so as not to cause pain to the child. Clean the foreskin when the head of the penis is exposed, and then be sure to restore the foreskin, otherwise it will cause an embedded prepuce and affect the blood supply to the glans. If the above practices are not effective, circumcision should be performed when the child is 5 to 6 years old. If foreskin imposition occurs, the child should be taken to the hospital immediately to receive treatment.
