Can I cure foreskin hyperplasia?

The foreskin is an important part of the glans penis. The main function of the foreskin is to protect the glans penis. If there is a problem with the foreskin, the health of the male private parts will also be greatly affected. Foreskin is a very common foreskin problem. Many people want to know whether the foreskin is too long and can be treated by themselves. In fact, this disease cannot be treated by oneself. Here is some relevant knowledge about foreskin!

1. Disease Introduction

Phimosis refers to the foreskin covering the urethral opening, but can be turned up to expose the urethral opening and the glans penis. This disease is related to genetics and can be divided into true phimosis and false phimosis. Patients with phimosis should undergo surgery as soon as possible. For phimosis without inflammation, as long as the foreskin is turned up and cleaned frequently, surgery is not necessary. Phimosis is caused by genetic inheritance from parents.

2. Clinical manifestations

Phimosis can be divided into true phimosis and false phimosis. True phimosis means that the glans cannot be fully exposed even after the penis is erected; false phimosis means that the glans cannot be fully exposed at ordinary times, but can be fully exposed after the penis is erected.

3. Differential diagnosis

During puberty, the foreskin still covers the glans penis and cannot be exposed during erection, but the glans penis can be exposed when it is turned up by hand, which can be diagnosed as foreskin being too long.

It should be distinguished from phimosis. Phimosis means that the foreskin cannot be turned up and down, and the foreskin opening is very small. If the foreskin is too long, you can use your hands to turn the foreskin back to expose the glans penis.

IV. Treatment

Treatment of prepuce: There are three main types of circumcision surgeries:

1. Circumcision is suitable for children under 12 years old. Use a special clamp to clamp the excess foreskin in the groove of the inner ring to cause ischemia and necrosis of the foreskin.

2. Circumcision is suitable for males over 12 years old. It cuts off the excess foreskin and the connective tissue in the middle, sutures it and applies pressure bandage. It is the most commonly used surgery now.

3. Laser surgery is to use laser as a scalpel to remove the foreskin. Because the high temperature of laser surgery can easily burn the incision, the wound is difficult to heal after suturing. This procedure is generally not used. When the penis is not erect, although the foreskin covers the glans, it can be easily turned over. In this case, the foreskin is an elective surgical condition. Patients can decide whether to undergo circumcision surgery based on their own health needs and aesthetic needs.
