Patient's question:
Doctor, my penis does not reach a 90-degree erection and is slightly bent upwards. Is this normal? Is it caused by phimosis? Recently, after masturbation, I noticed that I cannot achieve a 90-degree erection and it is slightly bent upwards. Is this normal? Does phimosis affect the erection angle? Thank you very much for quickly clarifying this for me.Doctor's answer:
Children's growth and development mature, the glans will be exposed. If the foreskin needs to be manually rolled back to expose it, it is called phimosis. If it cannot be rolled back, it is called paraphimosis, both of which interfere with the development of the penis. If it cannot be exposed, surgical treatment is required. The treatment of balanitis, excessive foreskin overhang affecting the glans in men can lead to premature ejaculation in men. Foreskin overhang can interfere with erection. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for circumcision surgery. There are many methods for treating balanitis, but because the patient's condition is different, the treatment methods used are also different. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment after discovering symptoms.
