2. Will foreskin edema heal on its own?

1. There are many reasons for foreskin edema after sexual intercourse, but the most common ones are phimosis or excessive foreskin. As we all know, the skin on the male penis is very thin. At the head of the penis, the skin folds inward to form a double layer that covers the penis, which is called foreskin. Phimosis means that the foreskin covers the urethral opening but can still be turned outward to expose the urethral opening and the glans penis. If the foreskin opening is narrow or adhered to the glans penis, so that the foreskin covering the penis cannot be turned up to expose the urethral opening and glans penis, it is called phimosis.

2. The skin and subcutaneous tissue of the foreskin are loose, and there are abundant blood vessels and lymphatic vessels in it, which belong to the peripheral part of the body's circulation. Therefore, the blood and lymph return relatively slowly, and it is a part that is prone to edema. During sexual intercourse, as the sexual movements proceed, the foreskin is constantly impacted by the upward force, which is particularly obvious when suffering from phimosis or excessive foreskin. In this way, the penile skin is stimulated by severe friction, which causes poor venous return and edema. In severe cases, it may also cause incarcerated phimosis, which needs to be repositioned in time to avoid necrosis.

3. In addition, when the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, the glans penis is prone to accumulate dirt, which together with the secretions of the glands inside the foreskin forms smegma. The accumulation of smegma can cause balanitis or balanitis. Over time, the inflammation will cause the foreskin opening to shrink and form adhesions with the glans penis, leading to acquired phimosis. After suffering from inflammation and adhesion, the chances of foreskin edema after sexual intercourse are greater.
