For example, the mothers of boys beat the alarm and begin to panic, if suddenly noticed that the structure of the intimate part of the body - penis, several «non-standard». Most likely, we are talking about phimosis - pathological narrowing or compression of the opening of an extreme flesh, because of which it is impossible to expose the head of the penis.
Phimosis - two opposite opinions
Many specialists argue that phimosis for newborn boys is not a problem - this is, they say, not at all. The fact is that the formation of genital organs begins in the womb, but does not end before childbirth - on the contrary, it continues and lasts after birth. Over time, phimosis will be held - it is necessary only gently, neatly during bathing or after it stretch the extreme flesh. Of course, to do these manipulations need to mom.
But there are a number of doctors who are confident that phimosis is extremely dangerous, as it can lead to a violation of urination, which will adversely affect the body of the boy and the cause of the pathology of the urinary tract, and sometimes hydronephrosis or atony. In addition, it is the opinion that phyms can manifest itself as a result of some genetic problem. So who is right?
Types of phimosis
It should be noted that today this disease is divided into two types - physiological phimosis and pathological phimosis. The latter is divided by specialists for another two subspecies - hypertrophic and scar.
Physiological phimosis is a disease that is characterized by a congenital narrowing of the extreme flesh, which does not allow you to freely remove the kids to the age of up to three years old. This species does not require any treatment, if it does not cause a kid of discomfort and problems in ordinary life. Somewhere for three years most often formed spikes between extreme flesh and sexual member disappear. If this process is broken, the boys develop pathological phimosis.
As mentioned above, the pathological form of this disease is two subspecies. With hypertrophic phimosis with adulthood, the child develops an excessive amount of skin on an extreme flesh that increases, as if «proboscis». But when cutting phimos, a connecting and wanno seal is manifested near the opening of the extreme flesh.
In the pathological manifestation of this disease, urine can fall into a pre-care bag, which is why he is bloated. In addition, it is FMOs that is often the cause of Enuris.
Degree of phyhoshosis
Each case of the disease is unique and individual, so the standard scheme will not offer any specialist in absentia. Up to six years do not treat phimos at all, if he does not cause problems to kid. But already at six to seven years, the doctor may see the first manifestations of pathology.
Mama boys can be offered a peculiar gymnastics - stretching of the extreme flesh manually. This action must be performed daily, at least ten minutes. As for drugs, they are not prescribed. In very and very rare cases, the doctor can advise corticosteroid ointments that can increase the elasticity of the skin of the extreme flesh.
If the baby has difficulty urination due to phimosis, the doctors can be mechanically using a member head - using a seal probe. After this procedure, the head is lubricated with vaseline and return to place. To facilitate the state, assign warm baths with the addition of potassium permanganate.
The dangers of phyology
What is dangerous phimosis in boys? First, inflammatory processes under the skin, which will bring a mass of discomfort. Secondly, the extreme flesh can increase the head, which is why natural exposure will become unreal. Thirdly, night incontinence can develop. Fourth, - this problem is rarely affected - more adult boy can feel like other guys, which can lead to complexes, closets and psychological problems.
Prevention of the disease
- Do not stand alone «At home» open a member head if you have not consulted with a doctor! Remember that if you expose the head of the member and not return to the place of extreme flesh, it can develop paraphomy - pinching the head with a ring of extreme flesh, which is pathologically narrowed. Output from this situation is the immediate appeal to the hospital, since otherwise gangrene heads can begin.
- Take a boy daily, preferably under running water. Wake up so that the feasible masses do not hit the extreme flesh - in front of the back. Refrain from frequent use of soap, as it dries and tightens the skin, besides, it can cause irritation.
- Change diapers no less often than every six o'clock. At air temperature more than thirty degrees, it is better to give up them at all. When changing the diaper, arrange 10-minute air baths.
