The skin under the glans is swollen

Swelling of the foreskin under the glans is very common in life. For example, balanitis is a common disease. There are many reasons for balanitis. The most common reason is that the foreskin is too long, which will lead to the breeding of bacteria and easily induce swelling of the foreskin. In addition, some bad living habits can also cause swelling of the foreskin, such as excessive masturbation.

The skin under the glans is swollen

1. Vascular foreskin edema

Like urticaria, it is an acute allergic reaction of the glans penis to food, medicine or insect bites. This disease can occur only on the glans penis or at the same time as urticaria. Children are prone to foreskin edema, which is manifested by the foreskin at the glans penis being highly swollen and shiny, like a large blister. However, it does not affect urination.

2. Not paying attention to external genital hygiene

Because men are busy with work and have bad habits, they do not have much time to pay attention to the hygiene of their external genitalia, so they are easily invaded by bacteria. The smegma cultured bacteria causes foreskin edema.

3. Injury caused by masturbation

Young men often masturbate because of their strong sexual desire. Sometimes, due to excessively rough masturbation, the foreskin may be damaged to varying degrees. Because of the high excitement during masturbation, the damage is relatively small and may not be noticed, but the wound on the foreskin is easily contaminated by bacteria, causing foreskin edema.
