Doctor's answer:

Phimosis is the inflammation of the glans penis. This condition can be caused by various pathogens, local irritants, and other factors. Treatment recommendations include applying potassium permanganate solution externally, taking amoxicillin and levofloxacin orally. It is advisable to avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, and maintain good personal hygiene. Daily cleaning of the external genitalia is necessary, and if phimosis is present, circumcision may be required.
During the treatment of phimosis, in addition to symptomatic therapy, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of phimosis.
