- Causes of Phimosis. Phimosis is most often caused by repeated infections of the foreskin. Some cases of phimosis are congenital, or present at birth.

- A paraphimosis that is reduced with minimal intervention by the ED physician still requires outpatient urology follow-up in anticipation of recurrences and evaluation for possible circumcision. Trauma to the foreskin during reduction of a paraphimosis may lead to the development of phimosis in up to 30% of patients.

- In early BXO, there may be non-specific symptoms such as itch, burning sensation during passage of urine, penile discharge and decreased in sensation of the glans penis. As BXO advances in uncircumcised men, it causes thickening and scarring of the foreskin, resulting in a condition called phimosis. Phimosis is the inability to retract the foreskin over the glans penis. As BXO extends to the glans penis, it would lead to disfiguration of the glans.

West Nile Virus Causes, incidence, and risk factors. West Nile virus is a type of organism called a flavivirus and is similar to many other mosquito-borne viruses, including Japanese encephalitis (which is found in Asia). Researchers believe the virus is spread when a mosquito bites an infected bird and then bites a person.est Nile virus is transmitted by mosquito's and causes an illness that ranges from mild to severe. Mild, flu-like illness is often called West Nile fever. More severe forms of disease, which can be life-threatening, may be called West Nile encephalitis or West Nile meningitis, depending on where it spreads.

Orchitis Bacterial orchitis. Most often, bacterial orchitis is the result of epididymitis. Epididymitis usually is caused by an infection of the urethra or bladder that spreads to the epididymis. Often, the cause of the infection is an STI. Other causes of infection may be related to having been born with abnormalities in your urinary tract or having had a catheter or medical instruments inserted into your penis. Viral orchitis is usually caused by the mumps virus.

Polyhydramnios In most cases, the exact cause cannot be identified. A single case may have one or more causes, including intrauterine infection (TORCH), rh-isoimmunisation, or chorioangioma of the placenta. In a multiple gestation pregnancy, the cause of polyhydramnios usually is twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome.Maternal causes include cardiac problems, kidney problems, and maternal diabetes mellitus, which causes fetal hyperglycemia and resulting polyuria (fetal urine is a major source of amniotic fluid).n most cases, the exact cause cannot be identified.

Foreskin Problems In certain circumstances, treating phimosis can lead to paraphimosis, which does require immediate medical attention. With paraphimosis, if a person cannot return the foreskin to its original position and the glans or foreskin becomes progressively more painful, swollen, or discolored, seek immediate medical attention. Paraphimosis is a medical emergency. If not treated immediately, it can result in gangrene of the glans and foreskin.

Phimosis Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin of the penis cannot be pulled back past the glans. A balloon-like swelling under the foreskin may occur with urination. In teenagers and adults, it may result in pain during an erection, but is otherwise not painful. Those affected are at greater risk of inflammation of the glans, known as balanitis, and other complications. In young children, it is normal to not be able to pull back the foreskin. In more than 90% of cases, this inability resolves by the age of seven, and in 99% of cases by age 16. Occasionally, phimosis may be caused by an underlying condition such as scarring due to balanitis or balanitis xerotica obliterans.

- Amebiasis is a disease caused by Entamoeba histolytica, a unicellular eukaryotic parasite. E. histolytica belongs to thegenus Entamoeba, along with 5 other parasites: E. coli, E. hartamanni, E. dispar, E. gingivalis, and E. polecki.However, only E. histolytica causes Amebiasis.any carriers of Amebiasis have no symptoms, and eventually clear the infection without disease. However, 4-10% of asymptomatic carriers develop symptomatic infections within 1 year. For this reason, it is strongly suggested these asymptomatic individuals obtain treatment.

What is Epididymo-Orchitis: Causes, Symptoms, Treatment, Who is at Risk, Diagnosis Majority of the cases of Epididymo-Orchitis are due to infection. These infections are caused by the following: Epididymo-Orchitis Caused By Urinary Tract Infection: Some bacteria like the E. coli which causes urine infections at times get to the vas deferens and lead to development of Epididymo-Orchitis.

- The bacteria that cause prostatitis may get into the prostate from the urethra by backward flow of infected urine or stool from the rectum. At one time, prostatitis was believed to be a sexually transmitted disease, but more recent research suggests that only a small number of cases are passed on through sex.

Paraphimosis Causes include the following: 1  Bacterial infection (e.g., balanoposthitis) 2  Catheterization (i.e., if the foreskin is not returned to its original position after a urethral catheter is inserted, the glans may become swollen, which can initiate paraphimosis) 3  Poor hygiene. 4  Swelling-producing injury. 5  Vigorous sexual intercourse.

Epididymitis and Epididymo-orchitis Epididymitis and epididymo-orchitis are usually caused by a bacterial infection. Infection can result from surgery, the insertion of a catheter into the bladder, or the spread of infections from elsewhere in the urinary tract. Sometimes, particularly in young men, the cause is a sexually transmitted disease.
