How to treat male peeling

When men reach a certain age, they will have foreskin that is too long. This phenomenon can only be improved through surgical removal. However, before the operation, men should still undergo a full-body examination to avoid any risks during the operation. Nowadays, many surgeries will use laser surgery, so that the patient will not be left with too large a wound after the operation.

Phimosis means that when the penis is in a relaxed state, the foreskin covers the entire glans. If the foreskin not only covers the entire glans, but also has a narrow opening and cannot be turned outward, this condition is medically called phimosis.

The foreskin covers the urethral opening, but can be turned up to expose the urethral opening and the glans penis. Generally, the mild adhesion between the glans penis and the foreskin of boys disappears on their own after the age of 3, and the foreskin can be turned up. However, the turned-up foreskin in childhood often covers the urethral opening, and the glans penis gradually becomes exposed during puberty. When the penis of an adult is flaccid, the foreskin does not cover the urethral opening, and the foreskin can be turned up to expose the coronal sulcus, which is the foreskin of normal length. Excessive foreskin can cause smegma to accumulate in the foreskin, causing balanitis. Repeated inflammation can cause the foreskin opening to shrink and adhere to the glans penis to form a phimosis. Penile cancer may be related to long-term stimulation by smegma.

The foreskin opening is narrow or the foreskin is adhered to the glans penis, so that the foreskin covering the penis cannot be turned back to expose the urethral opening and glans penis. In severe cases of phimosis, the foreskin opening may be very narrow, and sometimes the urethral opening is also narrow, affecting urination.

Therefore, people with phimosis and prepuce that are too long should undergo surgical treatment as soon as possible. It is worth mentioning that although prepuce that is too long has little impact on health, it may sometimes form an incarcerated foreskin due to the narrow foreskin opening, that is, the foreskin is tightly tied to the coronal sulcus of the penis and cannot be pushed down. At this time, it should be manually restored as soon as possible. If manual restoration is not possible, the doctor should be asked to cut the tight foreskin opening and then perform circumcision.

"Laser circumcision" is currently the best treatment for prepuce and phimosis. This treatment is an outpatient treatment, does not require hospitalization, can be treated at home, and does not affect study and work. Laser circumcision takes a short time to treat, has little bleeding, does not leave scars, and is painless. It is the preferred treatment method for many younger patients.
