Patient's question:
I found that every time I get an erection, my glans cannot be exposed. Is this situation considered phimosis? I heard that phimosis can be quite harmful. Please ask: what are the treatments for phimosis at the initial stage?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis adhesion can first be treated with non-surgical methods such as warm water cleaning and soaking. If these methods do not resolve the issue, surgery should be considered. The older the patient, the better their tolerance for surgery; however, the adhesion may also improve. Therefore, for an eight-year-old child, if diagnosed, surgery can be performed as early as possible. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications, whereas delayed treatment may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
