Patient's question:
Hello, my foreskin is, I want to treat it well, consult, how to treat the disease of foreskin?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis adhesion refers to a condition where the foreskin is too long or too tight, and after being forcibly retracted, it fails to return to its original position. The tight foreskin opening acts like a tight ring, strangling the corona of the glans. Below the point of entrapment, blood circulation and lymphatic are significantly obstructed, leading to local edema and making repositioning more difficult. If the entrapment persists for a long time, the glans may become cyanotic, disoriented, or purulent due to cerebral edema.After sterilization, a 2% lidocaine anesthetic is used to dilate the foreskin opening until it can be retracted. A local anesthetic inflation method can be employed, such as using a ball-tipped probe in cases of severe adhesion, until the foreskin can be moved freely, exposing the glans and frenulum. The smegma or calculus can then be removed, followed by rinsing with physiological saline and disinfecting with 1‰ chlorhexidine. A lubricant and blood-activating ointment should be applied to the foreskin cavity to prevent re-adhesion, and the foreskin is then repositioned.
