Foreskin skin cracking

The foreskin of men is also very important for men, but if the foreskin of men is too long, it will not only cause some men's diseases, but also easily hide dirt. Most men with too long foreskin may have skin cracking, which will make men feel foreskin pain and affect their sex life, so they must actively treat it. So what should we do if the foreskin is cracked?

Why does the foreskin become dry and cracked?

1. Because your sexual partner has fungal vaginitis, you will be infected again after sexual intercourse. Therefore, it is recommended that their sexual partners also go to a regular hospital for a gynecological examination to determine whether they have vaginitis. In clinical practice, if a man has balanitis or a woman has vaginitis, both men and women should undergo relevant examinations and receive joint treatment. Otherwise, if only one party receives treatment and no protective measures are taken during sexual intercourse, the virus may be cross-infected to the other party.

2. The patient may have high blood sugar. Diabetic patients develop local skin lesions, and the exudate is richer in nutrients than that of normal people, which makes it easy for bacteria to grow and the skin lesions are difficult to recover. Therefore, if a man suffers from recurrent balanitis and his sexual partner does not have vaginitis, it is necessary to consider whether the man has systemic diseases such as diabetes.

3. It may be inflammation caused by excessive foreskin. If a man's foreskin is too long, the glans penis is not easy to be exposed, and the coronal sulcus and glans penis area are prone to accumulating dirt. If you do not pay attention to cleaning the external genitalia on a regular basis, bacteria will breed and produce smegma, which will irritate the local mucosa and cause inflammation. At this time, you should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time to avoid retrograde inflammation and cause urethritis. If a person with foreskin that is too long suffers from recurrent balanitis, circumcision should be considered.

Because the skin on the foreskin feels dry and cracked, similar to the symptoms of dry arms in winter, this is often a manifestation of inflammation, balanitis. Because the foreskin and glans are directly attached to each other, when the foreskin is inflamed, the glans is also prone to inflammation. This friend's foreskin is dry and cracked, or painful, which is a type of balanitis. We have common balanitis, because the foreskin is long, the stimulation of smegma causes the foreskin to become red and swollen, with some secretions, smegma, etc. There are also some specific balanitis, because his condition is very similar to a type of balanitis caused by a fungal infection.

Diabetic patients have many symptoms, among which foreskin cracking is one of them. Moreover, the more serious the condition of the diabetic patient is, the more serious the foreskin cracking will be and the longer the cracking will last. Therefore, people with diabetes must take hypoglycemic drugs, such as metformin, in a timely manner. At the same time, do not eat foods high in sugar, such as sugar cane, watermelon, etc. In addition, in daily life, pay attention to getting more rest. Clean your penis regularly and use some medications to relieve symptoms appropriately. Do not have sexual intercourse during the medication period.
