Patient's question:
Male, 26 years old. I found that every time I get an erection, my glans cannot be exposed. Is this condition considered phimosis? I heard that phimosis has quite serious consequences. Please ask: What is the best age for phimosis surgery?Doctor's answer:
It is most appropriate to have the surgery when the child is around five or six years old. Phimosis can easily lead to urethral infections, premature ejaculation, scarring between the foreskin and penis, and other harmful effects, so it should be addressed as early as possible. You can take your child to the hospital for a thorough examination, follow the doctor's advice for treatment, and pay attention to hygiene. Additionally, in daily life, the patient should maintain a balanced nutritional intake, engage in regular aerobic exercises to strengthen the body, and keep a positive mood to enhance physical fitness and accelerate the recovery process.
