Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed mild redness and swelling of the foreskin and glans, with significant swelling and severe itching of the foreskin. After undergoing a foreskin surgery, I found that my foreskin is swollen. I would like to ask if this is a normal phenomenon? What should I do about foreskin swelling? Is it normal?Doctor's answer:
A good urology hospital. There are two types of phimosis edema. One is that if the frequency of sexual activity is high in a short period, the intensity is significantly affected, or the sexual activity duration is long, it may reappear due to poor venous inflow. This situation is often discovered after sexual activity and will naturally subside. However, prevention is necessary to avoid phimosis entrapment caused by phimosis edema, which is when the foreskin swells and traps the glans. The main prevention method is to try to return the foreskin to its normal position. The method involves using a warm towel to (fū) to speed up blood circulation, then wrapping the penis with a ring and pressing the glans down with the thumb until it is inside the foreskin. Pressing it multiple times will help reduce swelling.
