Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed mild redness and swelling of the foreskin and glans, with significant edema and severe itching of the foreskin. I'm wondering if it's okay if the foreskin is pulled back and can't go back down. After pulling it back, it doesn't go back down. Below, there's just a bud, and I can't quite describe what it feels like when the glans touches something.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, if there is no discomfort, this is generally not a big deal. It could be a symptom caused by excessive foreskin. You should pay attention to eating more meals and allowing the glans to be exposed. Pay attention to daily cleaning to prevent the spread of infection. If the foreskin is too long and causes discomfort, it is recommended to have surgery as soon as possible for treatment. For patients with a foreskin condition, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
