US
44
Where circumcision is not necessary
Canada, England, Sweden
45
Circumcision as a religious practice
Jews and Muslim
46
- occurs in uncircumcised males
- foreskin is unable to retract and become swollen
Phimosis
47
- inability to return foreskin over penis because of edema, yeast, or bacterial infection
Paraphimosis
48
- usually has an acute onset and often follows trauma or infection
Genital Pain
49
(2) can cause epididymitis
STD, UTI
50
- perineal pain (bacterial or non bacterial in origin)
Prostitis
51
- vesicles, ulcers, warts, or rashers
- often symptoms of STD, but also maybe caused by a systemic problem or Carcinoma
Genital lesions
52
- edema
- may result from local trauma or infection, but maybe associated with systemic problem such as CHF
Genital Swelling
53

Testicular tumor

Prostate Gland Enlargement

- protrusion of an organ through an abdominal opening the muscle wall
- it may be direct or indirect

74
- hernia that emerges from behind the external inguinal ring and protrudes through it
- seldom descends into the scrotum
- usually affect men older than age 40
Direct inguinal hernia

- most common

Indirect inguinal hernia

- uncommon in men

Femoral hernia
