Patient's question:
The foreskin isto the glans. What is the white substance in the covered area? A month ago, there was redness and swelling, which was treated with potassium permanganate and erythromycin ointment, and the swelling has subsided. How should this be resolved.Doctor's answer:
Hello, how old is your child? If the adhesion persists after the age of two, it is recommended to undergo surgery. A tight foreskin opening, like a narrow ring, tightly constricts the posterior corona of the glans, causing significant obstruction of blood circulation and lymphatic drainage below the point of entrapment, leading to local edema and making repositioning more difficult. If the entrapment is prolonged, the glans may become cyanotic, disoriented, or purulent due to cerebral edema. For the patient, if the condition of foreskin adhesion is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to recurrent episodes of foreskin adhesion. Additionally, patients should maintain a proper diet and keep a positive mood. It is hoped that the answers to the above questions will be helpful to everyone. Thank you.
