Foreskin is red and swollen, and there are red spots on the glans

Children may have redness and swelling of the foreskin and glans for no apparent reason. This is due to balanitis. Due to long-term urination, fluid accumulates in the foreskin. Long-term excessive moisture will cause the foreskin and glans to become red and swollen. In normal times, you need to pay attention to finding the main cause of the redness and swelling of the foreskin and glans, and then make corresponding judgments. Don't think this is a small problem, it can actually cause big trouble.

In fact, the root cause of the red and swollen foreskin is the foreskin or prepuce that is too long. Many families do not understand. Aren’t most boys born like this? Isn’t this normal? How can it be considered a disease?

Phimosis: refers to the narrow opening of the foreskin that cannot be turned up to expose the glans penis. It can cause varying degrees of dysuria, slow and small urine flow, and bulging of the foreskin during urination. The foreskin cannot be turned up for cleaning, and smegma accumulates in the foreskin sac. The smegma can be discharged from the foreskin opening, or it can remain in the glans penis coronal groove in small pieces. The retention of smegma makes urine discharge difficult and prepuce and glans inflammation is prone to occur. In prepuce and glans inflammation, the prepuce opening is red and swollen, with purulent secretions.
