The white film on the glans cannot be washed off

The white film on the glans seems to be related to some sexually transmitted diseases and skin diseases. Many men, especially young men, find a white film on the glans, and their first reaction is "Do I have a sexually transmitted disease?" Let me summarize with everyone the reasons why the white film grows on the glans.

Process/Method:

1. First: The milky white may be urine scale. This is common in some adolescents who don't know how to wash their foreskin. If people don't wash it often, the epithelial cells that fall off the inner layer of the foreskin and the surface of the glans penis will accumulate into milky white urine scale. After the penis is erect and the foreskin rotates for the first time, you will find that the surface of the glans penis is covered with a layer of "tofu dregs leucorrhea" that has accumulated for many years.

2. Second: Too much cleaning. There are many boys with cleanliness obsession. They wash the vulva too much, making the glans penis mucosa extremely thin, tender, swollen and uncomfortable. Within a few days, the epithelial cells on the surface produce a layer of white film, which is often misdiagnosed as candidiasis by doctors. Patients are also more enthusiastic about hand washing, which is difficult to cure for a long time. In fact, if you stop hand washing, wait for the milky white epithelial cells to spontaneously embrittle and repair to normal glans mucosa, this "disease" will not be cured. Usually, you only need to use cold water to wash your private parts. There is no need to wash frequently, and there is no need to use various detergents or liquids to wash by hand, otherwise there will be both advantages and disadvantages.

3. Third: Infection with trichomonas. The glans penis is a common site for candidiasis, especially those with long foreskin often develop trichomonal glans dermatitis, which is locally swollen and itchy with "white residue". The patient and his relatives may also suffer from other candidiasis. For example, his wife often suffers from trichomonal vaginitis and papillitis at the same time; his baby may suffer from trichomonal stomatitis (goose mouth sores) and so on. When this happens, you can clean the wound with purified water and apply iodine glycerin 2 to 3 times a day. In severe cases, you can take itraconazole and other anti-trichomoniasis drugs according to the doctor's instructions.

Frequently Asked Questions:

It is best for people with long foreskin to have it removed in the hospital to prevent sequelae, which may even cause inflammation of the reproductive system of sexual partners. People with long foreskin should undergo surgery as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect their sexual life. This is also a key way to prevent penile cancer.
