Why do boys have a bad odor in their private parts?

For Asian men, it is a common phenomenon that the foreskin of the penis is particularly long. Therefore, once the foreskin affects normal sexual life, circumcision surgery is basically necessary. Moreover, excessive foreskin can also lead to various problems in the penis, such as harbouring dirt and so on. Sometimes, some men will find that their penis emits an unpleasant odor. Why is this?

The glans penis has a bad smell, which is a common symptom in men. It is usually seen in men with prepuce that is too long. The prepuce is too long, so the secretions of the prepuce cannot be discharged. A large amount of it accumulates in the prepuce cavity, producing smegma. Therefore, the accumulated smegma produces a bad smell. Especially in summer, when the temperature rises and sweating is more, the humid environment of the prepuce cavity makes bacteria multiply faster. If you don't pay attention to the hygiene of the prepuce, the bad smell of the glans penis will be stronger.

The odor of the glans penis is mostly caused by balanitis, which is a common reproductive infection disease. It is divided into balanitis and glansitis. Because they appear at the same time, it is called balanitis. Clinical patients with odor of the glans penis almost all have phimosis or prepuce. Balanitis is often manifested by redness and swelling of the foreskin, burning pain, aggravated during urination, and purulent secretions flowing out of the foreskin.

Male friends should pay attention to developing good hygiene habits, otherwise it will lead to balanitis. Experts point out that balanitis will cause the glans to have a bad smell, and excessive foreskin will also cause the glans to have a bad smell, so these two situations should be avoided.

The odor in men's genitals is mostly caused by scrotal inflammation and glans infection. Wash it every day. If the foreskin is long, it needs to be removed surgically. Change underwear frequently. If there is inflammation, you can take oral anti-inflammatory drugs.
