A doctor discovered a 30-year-old accumulation of smegma under the foreskin of a married man who was experiencing excruciating pain (1/10).
A man recently made a discovery during his morning shower that left him with a cold sweat. While urinating into his bathtub, he noticed pieces of a hard and unknown material falling into the shower drain. Deeply concerned by this discovery, he immediately took matters into his own hands.

Consultation with an expert (2/10)
The man went to the clinic of Dr. Chen Zhaoan, a renowned urologist from Taichung, Taiwan. During the examination, the doctor discovered an unusual deposit under the patient’s foreskin. An accumulation of material that appeared to have developed over several decades.

Years of neglected hygiene (3/10)
It was indeed smegma, a mixture of sebum, dead skin cells, and other impurities. Normally, good personal hygiene prevents this kind of buildup. But the man in question didn’t seem to be a big fan of deep cleansing.

A smell that’s hard to ignore (4/10)

The accumulation of smegma had emitted such a strong odor that it filled the entire room. The doctor concluded that the man had probably never washed there. He was completely unaware that his foreskin needed to be retracted to thoroughly wash his genital area.

A rare but avoidable phenomenon (5/10)

According to Dr. Chen, although he rarely sees such cases, about every two years. He recalled that simple daily washing with water and mild soap is sufficient to prevent such extreme situations.

The risks associated with the accumulation of smegma (6/10)

Smegma is a natural phenomenon. However, if it is not removed regularly, it can thicken, leading to infections and inflammation. It can also contribute to health problems such as phimosis, which impairs the retraction of the foreskin.

The importance of intimate hygiene for men (7/10)

This case highlights the lack of awareness regarding intimate hygiene among men. Too often neglected, this problem should be addressed in adolescence to avoid future complications. This man’s case is therefore far from unique.
