In China, 29% of adult men have phimosis. Some people believe that the long foreskin and phimosis do not hinder sexual life and fertility, so it is not a genital disease. In fact, this view is not scientific. Because both phimosis and phimosis are harmful to human body. So, what harm does phimosis do to men?
The harm of phimosis to men
1. Influence on the normal development of the glans: if the foreskin cannot be turned over, it will affect the normal development of the glans, and in serious cases, the glans deformity will occur.
2. Nonejaculation: If the foreskin cannot be opened, because the glans is over-protected by the skin, the rich functions of nerve conduction stimulation and excitatory stimulation of the glans disappear, and if the stimulation intensity required to stimulate ejaculation is not reached in sexual life, it is easy to occur.
3. Lead to cancer: potential risk Many studies have shown that male foreskin scaling (residual urine crystals) is one of the important causes of male penis cancer and female cervical cancer.
4. Inflammation of the penis: there are abundant sebaceous glands in the foreskin, which can secrete a large amount of sebum, and become "foreskin scaling" after a long time. The foreskin scale is suitable for bacterial growth, so it can cause inflammation of the penis and foreskin. Bacteria can also cause urinary tract infection through the urethra.
5. Damage to renal function: inflammation of the penis can cause urethral orifice or anterior urethral stricture, resulting in difficulty in urination. If urination is difficult for a long time, the function of the kidney will be damaged.
