How do parents judge whether a child's foreskin is too long?
There is a slight adhesion between the foreskin and the penis head of newborns and babies, and this adhesion gradually disappears at about 1 year old, and the foreskin and penis head are naturally separated, so the foreskin of children is longer, which is not abnormal. If you reach puberty, the penis head is still reluctant to show, or the penis head is tightly encapsulated by the foreskin in childhood, you must pay attention. So how can children see that the foreskin is too long? Let's listen to experts from Chengdu Tianfu Hospital. How should we judge whether the foreskin of a child is too long? Experts from Chengdu Tianfu Hospital said that if the child's foreskin looks hard from the outside, it suggests that it may cause infection and parents should pay attention. Then pay attention to the color of the child's foreskin when bathing. If it is often red and swollen, it may be infected. You should go to the hospital to see a doctor. Almost every boy is phimosis after birth. On the contrary, if it is not phimosis, it may be suffering from other diseases, such as hypospadias or hypospadias. If most children have physiological phimosis, there is almost no abnormal feeling. If there is abnormal feeling, it may be due to abnormal symptoms caused by physiological phimosis and they need to see a doctor. From the age of 3-4, the foreskin mouth begins to expand, and the hard skin can be exposed after foreskin expansion. After puberty (17 years old), the number of phimosis children is less than 1%. Generally speaking, 90% physiological phimosis can heal itself at the age of 3-5. The most typical foreskin balanitis caused by echinococcosis, although physiological phimosis is very common in young boys, and most of them can heal themselves, but because the foreskin can not be turned up and the penis head can not be exposed, it also brings some problems. For example, because this child's foreskin can't turn up, the epithelial cells and sebaceous glands shed from the penis head and foreskin can't be discharged and remain between the foreskin and the penis head. When some parents bring their children to see a doctor, they mistakenly think that the child has a hard knot on his penis, or even thinks it is a tumor. In fact, this is the retention of scale, which will bring some problems, such as secondary infection, redness, purulent secretion and so on. When many parents take their children to see a doctor, they mention that every time a child urinates, the penis head will first bulge out a small bubble. This is because the foreskin mouth is narrow and cannot be discharged directly through the urethral orifice. It is discharged first in the sac between the foreskin and the penis head, and then discharged. In this way, there will be problems such as thin urine line and unsmooth urination. Because children's foreskin is too long, it is not as easy to judge as adults. If you suspect that children have too long foreskin, it is recommended to consult a doctor in a professional hospital. If it is diagnosed that the foreskin is too long, it is best to treat it as soon as possible. Expert tip of Chengdu Tianfu Hospital: The above is a detailed introduction of "".I hope that parents will pay enough attention to it and take their children to a regular hospital as soon as possible to avoid adverse consequences. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
