Patient's question:
I didn't notice before, but I found out during the school physical examination yesterday.Doctor's answer:
Pay attention to maintaining local cleanliness and hygiene. Cleanse the inside the foreskin daily to prevent inflammation of the foreskin and glans penis. If the glans penis is frequently irritated by inflammation, the foreskin opening may narrow and adhere to the penis, forming acquired phimosis. This long-term chronic inflammation irritation is also related to the formation of penile cancer. Therefore, in addition to daily cleaning, children with excessive foreskin should also receive nursing guidance and treatment at the hospital. Foreskin and phimosis can easily lead to abnormal development of the child's penis. Surgery can be performed before school age, specifically between the ages of 5-8.
