Excessive smegma

We all know that the male foreskin plays a protective role for the male penis, because the male penis is the most important part of the male, and it is also the most vulnerable. The penis skin is particularly fragile and can easily be infected by bacteria, so the foreskin is needed to protect it. However, an overly long foreskin is not good for men, and it is easy to hide dirt. So what should I do if there is too much smegma?

Some male friends have more smegma, but they are not very clear about the reasons for the increase of smegma. In fact, there are many reasons for this situation. For example, infectious ones are often caused by unclean sexual intercourse, infection with Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Trichomonas, Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, fungi, Gonorrhea or other bacteria; or because the foreskin is too long and not cleaned enough, the unclean things between the foreskin and the glans, that is, smegma, will accumulate, irritating the local foreskin and mucous membrane to cause inflammation.

At the same time, urine will also penetrate into this gap and react chemically with the sebum to form smegma, which produces a strange odor. The smegma accumulated for a long time will become hard lumps, which people mistakenly think is a "tumor".

form

There are certain sebaceous glands under the skin where the inner surface of the penis foreskin and the glans penis meet. These glands continuously secrete some yellowish oily substances, which are mixed with some dirt and urine from the skin. Over time, the smegma accumulates and becomes thicker and thicker, and can become flakes or small pieces, and adheres tightly to the skin in this area. If you rarely take a bath or do not develop the habit of washing your lower body when taking a bath, this area will not be cleaned regularly, and the smegma will accumulate and become thicker, and adhere tightly to the skin. In fact, the way to avoid this situation is very simple, that is, to take a bath frequently. People in some areas where people cannot take a bath frequently should also develop the habit of washing their lower body. If these secretions and dirt are cleaned away frequently, smegma will not form, let alone some pieces or lumps of smegma.

When the foreskin is too long or the foreskin is too long, the secretions of the sebaceous glands in the foreskin cannot be discharged, and the smegma with a strong odor gradually forms. The smegma is suitable for the growth of bacteria, so it can cause inflammation of the glans penis and foreskin. Inflammation occurring at the urethral opening can cause the urethral opening to narrow after healing, resulting in difficulty in urination. Long-term stimulation of the glans penis by smegma may also cause penile cancer.

Smegma can usually be washed with clean water, never use soap or shower gel! Not only will it not remove the smegma, but the strong alkalinity of soap and shower gel will stimulate the skin of the foreskin and glans to secrete smegma faster!

harm

Smegma is a chemical carcinogen. Many experiments have shown that it has a strong carcinogenic effect. For example, when horse smegma is inoculated into mice, it can cause malignant skin tumors. When human smegma is inoculated into mice, it can also induce cervical cancer in female mice.
