Patient's question:
Hello, I have been feeling unwell recently and would like to consult about this condition. What should I do if I have phimosis?Doctor's answer:
For mild cases of phimosis that have already formed adhesion, manual treatment can be used. For more severe cases, surgical methods such as balloon dilation or preputial separation surgery are required. This method is simple to operate, minimizes bleeding, and causes less pain, but postoperatively, it is still necessary to frequently retract the foreskin and clean it, or apply lubricating ointment to the preputial cavity to prevent re-adhesion.If parents notice that their child has phimosis, they should clean the dirt inside the foreskin during each bath or bedtime hygiene to keep the foreskin clean. For children with phimosis, it is necessary to intentionally retract the foreskin with hands to expose the glans as much as possible.
