What is the difference between foreskin and phimosis?
When it comes to foreskin and phimosis, most people are coherent, meaning "foreskin phimosis". More people think that foreskin and phimosis are the same thing, but they are not. There are obvious differences between foreskin and phimosis. Too long prepuce does not necessarily have phimosis, but phimosis can have too long prepuce, which is more serious than too long prepuce. So what is the difference between foreskin and phimosis? Experts from Tianjin Sunshine Male Hospital gave a detailed introduction. There are several ways to distinguish phimosis from foreskin: Some people think that phimosis and foreskin are the same thing, which is wrong. You can apply soap to the penis to lubricate the inside and outside of the foreskin, fix the penis with your left hand and push the foreskin backwards with your right hand. If the foreskin can be turned up smoothly, it is that the foreskin is too long; If the foreskin mouth is too small to turn up, it is phimosis. 1. The foreskin is too long: with glans penis, there is a small mouth to urinate, and the foreskin can be turned up, but it can't go down. Symptoms of phimosis: the foreskin mouth is as narrow as a pinhole, and the foreskin bulges like a ball when urinating, and urination is not smooth. The operation was due to phimosis, urethral stricture and contraction of bladder sphincter during urination. 2. phimosis: refers to the foreskin can not be turned up and down, and the foreskin mouth is very small. If the foreskin is too long, you can open it by hand to expose the glans penis. Mainly because the foreskin is too long, it can be turned over and cleaned, but the phimosis can't be turned over. The foreskin dirt inside will stimulate the foreskin tissue and glans penis tissue. Once infection occurs, it is easy to induce dermatitis and balanitis, and the treatment is very difficult. Phimosis is much more harmful to people's health than too long foreskin. Some serious phimosis, the prepuce mouth is as narrow as a pinhole, and the prepuce bulges like a ball when urinating, and urination is not smooth. Due to phimosis and urethral stricture, the bladder sphincter contracts when urinating. Before or at the same time, the intravesical pressure exceeded the pressure that the Shi Mao sheath of bladder could bear. Urine flows back along the ureter, and the ureter and renal pelvis dilate, causing bacterial infection and scar formation in the upper urinary tract, leading to secondary reflux nephropathy and even renal function damage. Frings minimally invasive photoelectric circumcision and phimosis in Tianjin Sunshine Male Hospital provide targeted treatment for different prepuce and phimosis. This technique is natural and beautiful, minimally invasive, painless, fast recovery and without any side effects. The operation was operated by experienced clinical experts, using an omni-directional reproductive plastic diagnosis and treatment system. According to the characteristics of patients' genitals, the preoperative penis measurement, appearance design, operation mode formulation, postoperative effect evaluation and rehabilitation detection were carefully customized, and advanced instruments combined with minimally invasive technology were applied to make the incision neat and less bleeding. Experts remind that patients' friends must not be careless about the treatment of foreskin and phimosis. Operating environment and medical equipment are very important, and other infections will occur if you are not careful. Therefore, for the sake of safety, patients and friends must choose a regular professional andrology hospital for treatment, and do not choose an unqualified place for treatment for the price.
