Some men are panicking when they discover a yellowish discharge on their penis. In fact, this phenomenon is very common, usually seen in men with foreskin and phimosis. The foreskin is too long, making it impossible to discharge secretions inside the foreskin, accumulating in a large amount in the foreskin cavity, forming foreskin scale, which may cause harm to male health.
The structure of male reproductive organs leads to a warm and humid internal environment, which is prone to the formation of bacteria and foreskin scaling. If we do not pay attention to local hygiene at ordinary times, infection will occur and molting will occur. In addition, in clinical practice, there are many cases of repeated attacks and aggravation of foreskin balanitis due to doctors' non-standard and non treatment.
Often, some male patients are overly dismissive of their glans peeling and do not take it seriously. However, foreskin scaling cannot be underestimated, as it is a typical symptom of foreskin balanitis. Between the glans and the overlong foreskin, a warm and moist bacterial culture base is constructed due to the falling epithelial cells, gland secretion, and the odor of the glans. Once the bacteria enter, inflammation can occur, resulting in redness, congestion, abnormal odor, itching, or burning or pain in the foreskin. In severe cases, shallow ulcers or erosion can occur, and after suppuration, pus and odor can flow.
Without immediate diagnosis and treatment, male balanitis is likely to continue to worsen and develop into fungal candidiasis. Frequent recurrences can lead to dry prepuce cracks, fibrosis, and sclerotic torsion of the glans. Relevant experts suggest that once the peeling of the glans is detected, it is necessary to promptly go to a regular professional hospital to identify the cause and provide targeted treatment. "For balanitis caused by excessive prepuce length, circumcision should be performed as soon as possible after eliminating the inflammation.".
In life, the incidence of balanitis on the male foreskin is very high and very common. The onset of the disease is often concealed, and there are no obvious symptoms at the initial stage of the disease. The peeling of the glans is sometimes good and sometimes bad, so it is easy to be ignored in daily life. Experts suggest that once there are symptoms of foreskin balanitis such as glans peeling, it is necessary to arrive at a regular professional hospital for diagnosis, early detection, and early treatment.
