The foreskin and glans have a bad smell

The foreskin and glans have an odor, which is often related to the foreskin being too long. When the foreskin is too long, the smegma inside will become more, and then bacteria will breed and produce odor, and it will also cause inflammation, leading to balanitis in men, which is quite harmful. At this time, it should be cleaned in time. If the foreskin is relatively long, it is best to have it surgically removed. Let's take a look at this aspect.

The foreskin and glans have a bad smell

More and more patients are suffering from glansitis. When glansitis occurs, men's private parts will emit a bad smell, and it will also affect the patient's daily life and work. It is a relatively troublesome disease. It is important for us to carry out regular treatment after the disease. So, how to prevent glansitis in summer?

Penitis can cause private odor

1. The glans penis has a bad smell, which is a common symptom in men. It is usually seen in men with long foreskin. Long foreskin makes it impossible for the secretions of the foreskin to be discharged. A large amount of foreskin is accumulated in the foreskin 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 foreskin cavity makes bacteria multiply faster. If you don't pay attention to the hygiene of the foreskin, the bad smell of the glans penis will be stronger.

Second, 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, producing a odor.

How to prevent balanitis?

1. Pay attention to local hygiene, clean the glans and foreskin every day. If the foreskin is too long, it should be treated in time and circumcision should be performed if necessary. It is very necessary to clean the smegma in time.

2. If one of the spouses suffers from a sexual organ disease, they should suspend sexual activity and seek timely treatment. For example, if the spouse suffers from trichomonas or Candida albicans infection, both spouses should receive treatment at the same time.

3. Wash the foreskin and glans penis frequently to keep the foreskin cavity clean and dry. Avoid unclean sexual intercourse and keep yourself clean.

4. If ulcer or erosion occurs, change the dressing in time, twice a day, to avoid uncomfortable irritation.

5. For acute balanitis, avoid using corticosteroid ointments to prevent more serious infection.

6. Eat a light diet every day, avoid spicy food, get enough rest, and avoid overwork.
