Mr. Nguyen Trung T. (34 years old, Hai Phong) suffers from circumcision. Mr. T. said he found his foreskin very entangled and uncomfortable. Every love story feels like only 2 or 3 minutes to the finish line. Mr. T. went to a clinic in Hai Phong for a male examination. The doctor said that due to the long foreskin, T. should be circumcised.

When cutting, even though the doctor said that the sutures were absorbed by the sutures, at the site of the stitches, areas of flesh and skin shrank into small bumpy masses that looked very unsightly. Mr. T. said that every time he looks at the “little boy” he looks like an eel wrapped around the foreskin, which is very unsightly.

The case of Bui Ba H. (25 years old, Hanoi) went to a doctor because he thought that the foreskin was long different from the picture. H. found that when erect, but the foreskin still covered the penis, when wearing a condom to have sex, there was no feeling anymore.

He went online to search for information about the foreskin and found that his skin was too long, so he went to the doctor for advice to circumcise the foreskin.

Examination for H. BSCK Nguyen Quang Cu – specialist in andrology, urology, An Viet General Hospital in Hanoi, said that H. was longer than usual, so the doctor advised H. to cut the foreskin. .

According to Dr. Nguyen Quang Cu, the indication for circumcision is applied to each person, not everyone needs circumcision.

Many men read too much information online and think that long foreskin can cause cancer, poor love life, fast ejaculation… and want to cut it off, in fact this is not true because the foreskin is not connected. related to the problem of prolonging ejaculation time, limiting premature ejaculation or helping to treat infertility….

Doctor Cu examines a patient.

The foreskin is not excess skin. This skin area is responsible for protecting the glans and has many nerve clusters that help increase sensation in men.

In young children 90% of children may have a foreskin stenosis. When the baby grows under the stimulation of the penis, the foreskin is no longer narrow and only 1% of boys have a narrow foreskin when they grow up.

Dr. Cu said that many men come to the doctor and ask for circumcision because of their length. But in fact, the foreskin is only cut when it’s too ugly and unsightly.

Only cases of foreskin elongation were associated with semi-narrowing of the foreskin. The foreskin can be retracted but forms a tight loop behind when pulled out. Especially when the “little penis” erection due to stimulation will make men extremely painful, uncomfortable, causing inflammation of the foreskin, this case needs to be examined at the hospital.

Men with long foreskin do not need treatment. Many people find self-treatment methods such as applying medication, pulling the head off, which can cause inflammation and bacterial infection in the glans area.

Dr. Cu emphasized absolutely do not take drugs, apply any medicine to the foreskin area. Men just need to pay attention to clean the foreskin area to avoid infection.

When examining the foreskin, men should go to clinics with male urologists for appropriate examination and treatment.

Although circumcision is considered a minor surgery, if you perform it at an unreliable and poor quality facility, it can lead to a number of problems such as: causing paresthesia of the foreskin after the circumcision is complete. , leaving bad scars, painful shrinkage, pain right at the cutting site….

Therefore, choosing a medical facility that performs circumcision is extremely important.
