Is the harm brought by foreskin adhesion great or not?

Patient's question:

I found that every time I get an erection, my glans cannot be exposed. Is this condition considered phimosis? I heard that phimosis can be quite harmful. Please ask: how big are the harms brought by phimatal adhesion?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the situation you described, it is mainly considered to be caused by inflammation. It is recommended to use potassium permanganate for cleaning. Pay attention to maintaining good personal hygiene, expose the glans more frequently to avoid phimosis, where excess dirt accumulates, leading to the transmission of balanitis. Avoid consuming spicy and irritating foods. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should promptly undergo medication and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
