What are the specific symptoms of phimosis and paraphimosis?

Patient's question:

I am a 35-year-old male who has recently been experiencing discomfort. Gradually, the discomfort has worsened. Could you please tell me: What are the specific symptoms of phimosis?

Doctor's answer:

The situation you described, phimosis is when the foreskin can be retracted to reveal the glans, while paraphimosis is when the foreskin cannot be retracted and the glans cannot be exposed, often requiring surgical treatment. It is recommended to seek medical attention for a thorough examination and diagnosis, followed by scheduled surgical treatment.
Then, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, and regulate physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to maintain a positive mood, eat light, soft, and easily digestible foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
