If your foreskin is retractable which should be the case in most men and boys there is the possibility that bacteria or perhaps other sources of infection may find there way there. it is a simple natter of hygiene, you wipe or clean your anus for the same reason and have a bath for the same reason. it is just common sense.

How do men clean their penises?

Keeping penis clean is very important. 1.) Gently pull the foreskin back. 2.) Rinse with warm water only. Soap under the foreskin can cause irritation and swelling. 3.) Pull the foreskin back in place over the head of your penis. Circumcised men can directly use warm water and soap and clean it carefully.

Fishy odor in penis how do you get rid of it?

I don't know about the fishy smell. But if you want to get rid of any smell from your penis then all you have to do is. Wash regularly. Dry under foreskin before putting on CLEAN under ware.

What happens if a man gets circumcised?

Nothing that should not happen, the thing seems to work just fine even without having it mutilated. It protects the sensitivity of the glans penis and plays a big part in sexual pleasure itself.It must be kept in mind however that if you do not mutilate the end of a baby's penis by cutting the foreskin of, the child needs to be taught that proper hygiene is required or discomfort and pain can be a result , after he is able to retract the foreskin. The term smegma is one that relates to the collection of dirt under the foreskin of someone that does not wash properly. However that term is wrong Smegma is the cast of skin particles and other excretions that are produced under the foreskin to protect the glans and mucuos membranes in that area. there is no dirt involved. A boy should be the first to pull back his own foreskin when he feels it is right to do so. before that he need not worry about washing under it as no contamination can take place there.


How do you clean a baby's penis?

Just wash around it normally. Do NOT try to clean under the foreskin of a baby or indeed any boy. When a teenage boy reaches puberty then is the time to instruct him how to keep it clean.

Why do some men have skin over there penis?

Do you mean why do men retract their foreskins and expose the end (the glans) of their penis? This generally occurs all by itself when the penis is erect, as the normally loose foreskin is stretched tight when the penis stiffens and extends in length. Many guys also retract the foreskin by hand when they urinate because it reduces the likelyhood of their urine splashing around, it also avoids trapping urine droplets under the foreskin. All guys should retract their foreskin when bathing or showering to ensure that they wash their penis properly and thus avoid unpleasant smells and infections.
