    The growing cracks in the glans urethra are generally caused by long-term masturbation, trauma, balanitis and other factors.

    1. Masturbating for a long time

    If the patient has the habit of masturbating, he will often fiddle with the glans. If he exerts excessive force, it may cause the urethral crack to become larger and larger. Generally, bad living habits need to be improved in a timely manner.

    2. Received trauma

    If the genital area is subjected to violence or a foreign body, it may cause damage to the local mucosal tissue, which may cause the urethral opening to crack. It is necessary to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination in time. If it is more serious, it needs to be treated with suturing as soon as possible.

    3. Balanitis

    When the glans is repeatedly stimulated by inflammation, it may cause swelling and pain in the glans. Repeated stimulation of inflammation may cause the cracks in the urethral opening to gradually increase. You need to take amoxicillin capsules, cefixime dispersible tablets, azithromycin tablets, etc. orally as directed by your doctor in a timely manner.
