How to determine phimosis in children?

Many parents will find that most children are born with phimosis, which is a physiological phimosis. Some people do not know how to judge phimosis in children. Generally speaking, it is possible to detect whether a child has phimosis by observation, mainly by observing the condition of the foreskin.

1. Clinically, phimosis is a common disease in men. Once the disease occurs, the patient's glans cannot be exposed under normal circumstances, even during erection. Once such a situation occurs, the patient must immediately go to a regular professional hospital for phimosis surgery. Otherwise, patients may easily develop other inflammatory diseases, which is very detrimental to their health.

2. The easiest way to determine whether it is phimosis is to see whether the child's foreskin can be easily turned up. Of course, if it cannot be turned up, it cannot be absolutely said to be phimosis. In this case, it is more necessary to be diagnosed by a doctor. If it is true phimosis, it is recommended to undergo surgery as soon as possible. Of course, if the child's physique is close to that of an adult, he or she can also go to adult urology for treatment.

3. The so-called phimosis is caused by the adhesion between the foreskin and the glans penis, which makes the foreskin unable to turn upwards, revealing the urethral opening and glans penis, or the foreskin opening is too tight and narrow. If infants and young children under 2 years old have this phenomenon, it is not considered a disease. Although the foreskin of some children covers the glans penis, the urethral opening and glans penis can be exposed by gently turning it upward. This situation is called prepuce is too long. Children with phimosis have difficulty in urinating. A large amount of urine scale accumulates in the foreskin, stimulating the foreskin to become inflamed and causing adhesion, which further aggravates the urethral opening stenosis. When urinating, a bubble bulges in front of the glans penis, and urine cannot form a line, but can only drip. Therefore, sick children often cry and make a fuss, which is very painful. Long-term urination difficulties can also cause retrograde infection of the kidneys and bladder. Urination scale stimulation of the foreskin often causes inflammation of the urethral opening, and long-term stimulation can also lead to penile cancer. Therefore, if a child is found to have phimosis, he should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time. For children with too long foreskin, the foreskin should be turned over and washed frequently, and the foreskin should be kept clean and hygienic, which can reduce and avoid inflammation of phimosis.
