Some people say that "taking the initiative to cut the foreskin is a man's self-cultivation." So under what circumstances will boys take the initiative to circumcise? Under what circumstances would a girl ask her boyfriend to circumcise?
Didi refers to the dialogue with thousands of patients with circumcision, and summarizes and extracts the following categories.
Reasons why boys take the initiative to circumcise:
For myself: I don't wash this foreskin with a strange smell, I can't stand it when I smell it, the foreskin scale is often there, affecting the value, I have to cut;
For the sake of the other party: my foreskin, often repeated inflammation, sometimes not only my own discomfort, the object will also suffer from time to time, I think that cutting can be better, I am good for her;
Long-term plan: I heard that the foreskin is too long to have an impact on future sex life, take advantage of the fact that there is no object, cut it first;
For health: because the urine does not come out of the urine, come to the hospital for a check, phimosis, there is no way, you have to cut it. Or there are genital warts on the foreskin, and if you don't cut it, you have to cut it...
Reasons why girls ask their boyfriends to circumcise:
For yourself: as soon as you have sex, you will often itch, but you will not wear a condom, suspect that there is an infection, so let him cut it;
For the object: the foreskin is easy to be wet and sticky, in order to make him more comfortable and dry, persuade him to cut it.
There is also something in common: our unit who cut who cut, the feedback is very good, I also want to cut / you hurry to cut ...

In fact, these topics are easy to say, but for some people, they are really too heavy.
I once met a big brother who, because of difficulty urinating for 6 hours, came to the hospital to check the body and found that the foreskin opening was severely narrowed and needle-like. During the operation, it was found that the foreskin and gui head were seriously adhered to, and the operation was extremely difficult, and it could only be separated little by little. Finally, seeing the eldest brother's "full of holes" Of Ding Ding, Didi couldn't help but sigh: "What is the reason that made him persist to this extent before coming to the hospital..."
In short, the foreskin of this thing, some people are willing to take the initiative to cut, some people are very hesitant, until the last resort will never cut. So should it be cut or not, and in what case should it be considered? Today Didi will have a good chat with you about the things that cut the circumcision!
Those things about the foreskin
Having said all that, I haven't had time to introduce the foreskin.
The foreskin is the skin in front of Tintin, the skin that wraps the gui head. The foreskin is too long, that is, the piece of skin wrapped around the gui head is too long!
Let's take an analogy! Bananas have all eaten it, the foreskin is too long, just like the banana wrapped in the skin, but it is easy to peel off, you can directly turn it up, children will basically be like this, it is normal, a birth should be budding to be released, not in a hurry to emerge, this is called low-key!
Phimosis, that is, the foreskin mouth is too small, the foreskin can not be turned up to reveal the gui head, that is, like a banana that cannot be peeled!

The scale of the foreskin is the yellow-white secretion secreted by the foreskin sebaceous glands near the coronal groove, which has a special odor, and it will accumulate if it is not cleaned for a long time.
This is similar to the "ash" on our bodies, which becomes old ash after a long time. Too long foreskin wrapped around the gui head, the temperature and humidity inside are high, the accumulation of foreskin scale will be very conducive to the multiplication of bacteria, there will be foreskinitis, gui cephalyitis, urethral stomatitis.
The foreskin does not turn up for a long time, and may also be adhered to the gui head, which forms a foreskin adhesion, just like peeling orange peel, is it tightly adhered to the inside? Yes, this is how the foreskin adhesions are formed, and once formed, they are not only difficult to peel, but also very painful.
For the sake of serious science popularization, bananas and oranges are used, I don't know if I will be beaten.
Not all foreskins need to be cut!
In fact, most of the foreskin does not need to be cut.
Circumcision has been around for more than 4,000 years, but it is still controversial today. After so many years of debate and precipitation, the academic community generally believes that the absolute indication of circumcision is acquired phimosis.
In congenital phimosis, the foreskin mouth has a fibrous narrowing ring, recurrent inflammation of the foreskin of the yin stem head, the foreskin mouth is still severely narrowed after the age of 5 years, and the foreskin cannot be turned up to reveal the gui head is the indication for cutting the foreskin.
Simple foreskins that are too long do not require surgery. However, if the foreskin is too long and the following conditions are recommended, surgery is recommended:
1. Although it can be flipped, it can see a more obvious narrow ring, which is easy to cause incarceration of the foreskin;
2. Recurrent foreskinitis, gui cephalyitis, resulting in adhesion of the foreskin to the gui head or secondary phimosis;
3. Chronic inflammatory thickening of the foreskin, yin stem erection causing cracking of the foreskin, affecting sexual intercourse or causing a tendency to incarceration of the foreskin;
4. Requesting surgery for cosmetic, religious or other reasons;
5. Excessively long foreskin with benign tumors or new organisms, such as genital warts, etc., can be removed at the same time;
Since there are indications for circumcision, there are contraindications to circumcision:
1. Yin stem development abnormalities, such as occult yin stem, hypospadias, etc., because the foreskin can be reconstructed with urethra surgery;
2. Acute foreskinitis, urethritis, gui cephalyitis, etc.;
3. Abnormal coagulation function, with obvious bleeding tendency;
4. Suspected malignant foreskin tumor, unable to undergo local resection at the same time;
In between, it is cut or not, and if some people have a very strong will to cut the foreskin, they can also cut it.
Although circumcision significantly reduces bacterial colonization of the gui head, routine neonatal circumcision is not suitable for the prevention of yin stem cancer. Recent studies have found that people without a history of circumcision do not increase the risk of developing yin stem cancer.
Of course, it may also have a lot to do with people's attention to hygiene now.
Do not circumcise yourself
However, I would like to remind everyone not to cut their own foreskin at home!
Not to mention whether you can meet the sterility requirements by circumcising yourself at home, let's talk about the surgical standards and the treatment of postoperative complications.
"How much to cut, how much to keep" how to know the standard without professional learning? How to deal with postoperative bleeding? Without anesthesia, doesn't it hurt to cut?
After all, the foreskin cut at home, the pass rate is still poor.

It is true that some people will not be convinced, insist on buying a circumciser from the Internet, move their fingers at home, cut off the foreskin, and then...
Then I came to the hospital, and looking at the bloody roll of toilet paper under the crotch, and the regretful expression on the brother's face, I knew that this brother had done a big thing.
What to look out for after cutting the foreskin
Although circumcision is not a major operation, there are postoperative precautions that should be avoided.
1. It is best to rest for 1 to 2 days after surgery to avoid excessive activity caused by hemorrhagic edema;
2. Try to avoid sexual stimulation caused by yin stem erections, such as small yellow flakes, and do not go to the street to look around;
3. Dietary taboos spicy stimulating food, such as peppers, seafood, etc., do not drink alcohol, dress loosely, avoid strenuous exercise, lie down and rest, etc.;
4. Change and recheck the medicine on time after surgery;
5. Take antibiotics to prevent infection;
6. It is recommended to prohibit sexual life within 2 months, especially those with diabetes, I have seen 1 month can not hold back on the hard to come, hard to tear ah, regret to the intestines are blue!
7. Go to the hospital for re-examination as soon as possible if the gui head is black and purple and does not alleviate the discomfort;
8. How long is the recovery after surgery and whether it is necessary to remove stitches, it is best to consult the surgeon, because various surgical methods are different;
9. If you have diabetes, be sure to control your blood sugar!
In fact, most of the foreskin, as long as it does not affect normal life, usually there is foreskin scale or smell, can be washed. Speaking of which, Didi is going to come up with its own bgm song again!
Tintin "great health care", washing is healthier
1 2 3, do it with me
Little Tintin pulled it out
Left wash wash right wash wash
ah, turn the foreskin over first
The crown-like groove of the gui head is exposed
Dirty stuff, wash out
ah, turn the foreskin back again
The last step is important
……
The little thing about the foreskin is an eternal hot spot here in Didi, after all, as long as friends are together, they will talk about my profession, and when they talk about my profession, there will be endless topics.
But when friends are there, everyone says that they have no problem, but in a few days, they will send WeChat consultations in an endless stream, and I am happy to help them with professional knowledge, after all, adults are not easy, need to be honest with each other...
I love the world.
