What are the dangers of true foreskin hyperplasia in adults?

Phimosis is a disease suffered by many men. According to the type of disease, it can be divided into true phimosis and false phimosis. It causes great harm to patients. Patients must make a good identification and diagnosis of the disease in order to effectively take treatment and avoid the harm caused by true phimosis. So what are the dangers of true phimosis in adults? Let us learn about it in detail.

1. Hindering the development of the penis: During adolescence, the glans penis is tightly covered by the foreskin and cannot receive the proper stimulation from the outside world. The development of the glans penis is greatly restricted, resulting in a significantly smaller circumference of the glans penis after the sexual organ matures, affecting sexual pleasure. Causing sexual disharmony: Affecting the growth and development of the penis. During adolescence, the glans penis is tightly covered by the foreskin and cannot receive the proper stimulation from the outside world. The development of the glans penis is greatly restricted, resulting in a significantly smaller circumference of the glans penis after the sexual organ matures, affecting sexual pleasure. Adults may have normal sexual life affected by excessive foreskin or phimosis. Especially for men with a small foreskin, the foreskin cannot be turned up and is firmly stuck in the coronal sulcus, forming an incarcerated foreskin, which is not very painful. In severe cases, the glans penis may become swollen due to poor blood flow, and even glans penis necrosis may occur.

2. Causes penis inflammation: There are abundant sebaceous glands in the foreskin, which can secrete a large amount of sebum. An overly long foreskin will prevent the secretion of the sebaceous glands in the foreskin from being discharged, and the sebum and the sediment in the urine will synthesize into the cheese-like and smelly "smegma". Smegma is suitable for bacterial growth, so it can cause inflammation of the glans penis and foreskin. The bacteria can also cause urinary tract infection through the urethra. Inflammation occurring at the urethral opening can cause the urethral opening to narrow after healing, resulting in difficulty in urination.

3. Damage to kidney function: Penis inflammation can cause stenosis of the urethra or anterior urethra, resulting in urination difficulties. Long-term urination difficulties will damage kidney function.

4. Causes premature ejaculation: Due to the excessive foreskin, the glans penis cannot be well contacted with the outside world, resulting in high sensitivity of local nerves. Once sexual intercourse is performed, ejaculation will occur after only two frictions. If this continues for a long time, habitual premature ejaculation will form. The phenomenon of excessive foreskin can easily lead to premature ejaculation. Due to the excessive foreskin, the glans penis is very sensitive, and it is easy to ejaculate during sexual intercourse. If this continues for a long time, it will lead to premature ejaculation, affecting the male's sexual life and causing great psychological pressure on men.

5. Causes of balanitis: The secretions of the foreskin itself contain bactericidal components. However, due to the moist and warm environment of the foreskin cavity, bacteria can reproduce more easily. If the growth of bacteria exceeds the self-cleaning function of the foreskin, then balanitis may occur. There are many secretory glands in the inner plate of the foreskin, and the secretions can play a lubricating role. The accumulation of secretions and the inability to be cleaned and removed normally will also facilitate the reproduction of bacteria and cause balanitis.

6. Even cause cancer: Prepuce is too long and phimosis may induce penile cancer. Smegma is a carcinogen. 85%-95% of penile cancer patients have phimosis or prepuce is too long.

When patients find that they have true prepuce, they must go to the hospital for examination and take timely treatment. Otherwise, dirt will be hidden in the foreskin, and they will suffer from many male diseases, which will cause inflammation and other diseases, causing great harm to the patient. When patients have true prepuce, surgery can be used for treatment. At this time, patients can undergo circumcision surgery. Paying attention to postoperative care can avoid infection, and the harm of true prepuce can also disappear.
