Why does the foreskin itch?

Many boys have the problem of itchy foreskin. What is the reason? In fact, itchy foreskin is caused by balanitis on our body. Balanitis mostly occurs in male adolescents. So if we suffer from itchy foreskin, what should we do? Let's take a look at it together.

Causes of itchy foreskin

Male friends with itchy foreskin should pay attention to hygiene in daily life to prevent bacterial infection and symptoms. Urology experts emphasize: the sebaceous gland metabolism of young men's foreskin is often more abundant. If you don't pay attention to regular cleaning, the fluid of sebaceous gland metabolism will accumulate under the foreskin, forming urine scale like tofu residue and leucorrhea. Urine scale is an excellent formation base for bacteria. If it is not removed in time, it will cause bacterial infection.

The main cause of balanitis is long foreskin and excessive foreskin, and long foreskin often affects the happiness of the couple's sexual life, because the excessive foreskin covers the more sensitive part of the man - the glans penis, so that it cannot get more obvious stimulation during sexual life, thus leading to the disharmony of the couple's sexual life. The best solution at this stage is to undergo surgery for treatment.

Beware of the many side effects of foreskin

Long foreskin and prepuce are both natural growth and development abnormalities. Long foreskin means that the foreskin is too long to cover the head of the penis, and the glans penis and the coronal sulcus can only be exposed when the foreskin is turned up with force or when the penis is sufficiently erect. Prepuce is too long means that the foreskin is too long and too tight, and the glans penis and the coronal sulcus cannot be exposed when it is turned up or moved. If there is long foreskin and prepuce is too long, the glans penis cannot be exposed, which will cause many sequelae. Such as: prepuce is too long, glans penis inflammation, acute urethritis, cystitis, pyelonephritis, penile cancer, etc.

Just like the skin in various parts of the body metabolizes sebaceous glands, the sebaceous glands of prepuce also metabolize sebaceous glands. Because the prepuce is too long or too long, it cannot be turned up, so these sebaceous glands accumulate in the gap between the prepuce and the glans penis. In addition, urine will also penetrate into this gap and produce chemical changes with these sebaceous glands, turning into urine scale and causing a strange smell. Long-term accumulation of urine scale will become hard lumps, making people mistakenly think that they have tumors. Urine scale is an acid carcinogen, and many tests have confirmed that it has obvious carcinogenic effects. For example, if horse urine scale is vaccinated into mice, it can cause malignant tumors on the skin. Vaccinating mice with worker's urine stains can also cause cervical cancer in female mice.
