What is the cause of foreskin ulcer?

Phimosis with ulcers is a common symptom of male organ diseases, which is generally manifested as local tissue erosion, swelling and pain, accompanied by purulent secretions. What causes phimosis with ulcers?

Causes of ulcers due to excessive foreskin

1. Balanitis

If in adolescence, the foreskin of a boy is too long and still completely covers the external urethral opening, and the external urethral opening and the glans penis have to be turned over by hand to expose the external urethral opening, then the foreskin is too long; if the foreskin is too long and the opening is too small, and the foreskin is too long and still completely covers the glans penis, and cannot be rotated or pressed at the root and cannot roll, then the foreskin is too long.

Long or redundant foreskin causes long-term accumulation of urine scale, which over time causes infection by pathogens, resulting in redundant foreskin and inflammation of the male genitals, swelling, stinging, edema and erosion, that is, redundant foreskin with ulcers.

If the phimosis of the glans penis is not treated in time, it may cause penile cancer. To treat the phimosis of the glans penis, the problem of long foreskin and excessive foreskin must be dealt with first. The best way at this stage is to perform circumcision.

2. Penile cancer

Phimosis with ulcers is one of the early symptoms of male genital cancer. Penile cancer is more common in middle-aged men over 40 years old. In the early stage, ulcers or papules appear on the glans penis, which then break into large pus spots.

As the disease progresses, the disease will break through the prepuce and protrude from the surface of the male genitals. At this time, you can see the rupture of the glans penis, or the formation of cauliflower-shaped tumors with pus and odor, and finally the entire male genitals will be ruptured. In addition, the tumor cells will quickly migrate to the adjacent inguinal lymph nodes or distant parts of the human body. The adverse effects are quite serious, and you should go to a reliable specialist clinic for treatment as soon as possible.

3. Syphilis

Syphilis may also cause ulcers on the foreskin. Syphilis is an infectious disease caused by infection with Treponema pallidum, with symptoms including private erosion, external rash, bone and tendon pain, skin nucleation and rupture, and dementia.

Primary and secondary syphilis can be completely cured and the infectivity eliminated through complete treatment. Treatment of late-stage syphilis can eliminate inflammation in the tissues, but the damaged tissues are not easy to repair naturally, leading to complications.

Authoritative experts suggest: If the ulcer of foreskin is treated in time, the condition can be controlled quickly. If the ulcer is difficult to heal for a long time and all kinds of medications are ineffective, you should go to the hospital for a physical examination to see if you have penile cancer.
