What is the cause of the foreskin crack?

The glans is the male reproductive organ, and the female one is generally called the ovary. This lower body organ can cause some diseases due to various reasons. For example, if it is not cleaned for a long time or not well protected, some diseases will occur. The glans foreskin may also have diseases. Cracks are a relatively common disease, but many people do not know the cause of it. So what is the cause of the cracks in the glans foreskin?

When foreskin fissures occur, the first thing to suspect is foreskin that is too long or phimosis, because too long foreskin can easily lead to bacterial infection, and long-term stimulation can lead to foreskin fissures. Phimosis and foreskin are caused by chronic stimulation from urine and smegma, which can induce balanitis, causing edema, congestion, erosion, cracking and repeated cross-infection of the foreskin mucosa.

Moreover, due to repeated friction during sexual intercourse, the foreskin can easily become swollen, which is more obvious during intense movements and may even cause foreskin incarceration, making lacerations and bleeding more likely to occur during sexual intercourse.

The following are some of the harms that foreskin fissures can cause to men: 1. Inducing inflammation: Foreskin fissures can easily cause inflammation of organs such as prostatitis, testicles, epididymitis, and vas deferens. Experts point out that if timely and effective diagnosis is not obtained, the disease is likely to be transmitted to each other, which will cause more serious damage to reproductive health. 2. Accumulation of smegma: The foreskin fissures will cause smegma to form in a warm and humid environment due to the difficulty in draining urine residue and the accumulation of shed cells, mucus or bacteria in the foreskin. If you don't clean it thoroughly for a long time, it will stimulate the glans to produce foreskin.

Balanitis, foreskin stones, and leukoplakia caused by the loss of foreskin pigment. 3. Cause urinary system diseases: Foreskin fissures can easily lead to the infection of the urinary system, which is generally common in cystitis, nephritis, renal pelvis, etc., especially chronic balanitis that has not been cured for a long time is most likely to cause urinary system diseases. Improper treatment of acute attacks can be life-threatening. 4. Impact on sexual function: During the foreskin fissure period, the glans penis nerve is in a sensitive period, coupled with the damage caused by inflammation, it makes it easy to have premature ejaculation during sexual life, and can cause impotence in the long run.

In addition, atrophy and adhesion of the foreskin can also produce a hypertrophic narrow ring, which can pull the penis backward during erection and cause sexual dysfunction such as erectile dysfunction.

However, male patients with foreskin fissures do not need to worry, as the various circumcision surgeries currently available can solve the problem of foreskin fissures. Moreover, the technology of circumcision surgery is mature, and it has basically achieved the goals of short time, quick recovery, less pain, and good postoperative appearance.
