The foreskin is born by men, so children will also have foreskin. So, how to deal with the child's foreskin? The following is a brief introduction by andrology experts. Too long foreskin means that the foreskin covers the penis head, but it can be turned up to expose the penis head. Experts from Lianyungang andrology hospital said that phimosis can be divided into congenital and acquired types. Congenital phimosis is more common in infants, which is caused by the adhesion of the inner prepuce plate and glans at birth. Acquired phimosis means that due to repeated infection, inflammation or foreskin injury, the foreskin mouth is narrow and cannot be turned up to reveal the glans. What should children pay attention to in phimosis? Almost all newborns have phimosis, and the foreskin in childhood is too long. Generally, the adhesion between the penis head and the foreskin disappears by itself at the age of 4, and the foreskin can be turned up to expose the penis head, and then the penis head can be gradually exposed by itself, and it can be completely exposed in adolescence. Neonatal phimosis and excessive prepuce in childhood are physiological phenomena, so there is no need to make a fuss or treat them. However, it should be cleaned frequently, because it is very easy to "hide dirt and accept dirt", which is not only easy to induce inflammation due to bacterial reproduction, but also lead to cancer due to the stimulation of carcinogen scale. Treatment of prepuce phimosis in children Experts from Lianyungang Men's Hospital said that due to different causes, their treatment plans are also different. Generally speaking, most children can heal themselves when they are 3-4 years old. Therefore, most congenital phimosis do not need special treatment, and those who cannot heal themselves can only rely on surgery. Clean gently, carefully open the foreskin, and avoid using liquid or soap containing pharmaceutical ingredients to avoid trauma, irritation and allergic reactions. After cleaning, gently dry it with a soft towel, and then turn the foreskin back. If the foreskin opening is small, it is not easy to clean, and inflammation often occurs, circumcision should be carried out after the inflammation is controlled. As for children with phimosis, it is best to operate as soon as possible.
