According to statistics, among adult males in China, 29% have an excessively long foreskin and 9% have phimosis. Medical research has proven that excessive foreskin can lead to premature ejaculation, sexual disharmony, and sexually transmitted disease anxiety. Therefore, the harm of excessive foreskin should not be ignored, and it is best to seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
Male specialist Wang Jianmin said that adult men often pay special attention to the appearance changes of their sexual organs. When symptoms such as itching, rash, redness, and ulcers occur, one often feels nervous and anxious about the possibility of contracting sexually transmitted diseases, which is called "sexually transmitted disease anxiety disorder" in medicine. In outpatient clinics, sexually transmitted disease anxiety mostly occurs between the ages of 30 and 40, with more than 50% of patients having symptoms of excessive foreskin.
"For those with an excessively long foreskin, it takes an average of three years to undergo foreskin surgery from the first occurrence of foreskin inflammation.". The reason why men are unwilling to circumcise is that 50% of them are afraid of pain, 40% of them are afraid of destructive feelings, and some are afraid of affecting sexual function. However, the latest research has proved that circumcision will not affect sexual life.
"People with an excessively long foreskin may see more doctors, undergo more tests, and spend more time and money because they are prone to recurrent inflammation, which can lead to higher anxiety.". In order to prevent the occurrence of sexually transmitted disease anxiety, Dr. Wang recommends moderate stress relief; Avoid multiple sexual partners and special sexual contact; In addition, if the foreskin is too long and often inflamed repeatedly, it is best to go to the hospital as soon as possible to cut the foreskin.
