What is the difference between redundant prepuce and phimosis

summary

I have redundant prepuce for many years, but I don't think it will affect my health, so I didn't go to the hospital. But yesterday, I heard a friend say that if I don't go for treatment, it will affect men's health. In order to prevent this situation, I'd like to introduce the difference between redundant prepuce and phimosis.

What is the difference between redundant prepuce and phimosis

First: prepuce is too long refers to the man after adulthood, the penis skin package glans, so that glans can not be completely exposed. It can be divided into true prepuce and false prepuce. True prepuce is too long is the glans penis after erection can not be completely exposed. The false prepuce is too long is to point to usually glans cannot expose completely, but glans can expose completely after penile erection.

Second: after puberty, all or most of the glans of normal men are exposed. If the glans can not be exposed, the foreskin still covers all or most of the glans, but if the foreskin can be turned up by hand or the glans can be exposed after erection, it means that the foreskin is too long.

Third: redundant prepuce refers to the prepuce covering the urethral orifice, but can be turned up, exposing the urethral orifice and glans penis, but often accompanied by phimosis. Redundant prepuce can cause premature ejaculation, which can be treated by gradual delay training. Phimosis refers to the stenosis of prepuce mouth or the adhesion between prepuce and glans penis, so that the prepuce can not be turned up and the urethral orifice and glans penis can not be exposed.

matters needing attention

Pay attention to the local cleaning and sanitation of the penis in nursing, and wash it frequently. If the foreskin can't be turned up, don't force it to turn over. If you can turn up the cleaning, wash the foreskin back to the original position, so as not to cause incarcerated phimosis. This is also one of the health care measures of redundant prepuce.
