What are the symptoms of phimosis?

Patient's question:

Recently, I noticed mild redness and swelling of the foreskin and glans, significant edema of the foreskin, and severe itching. I would like to ask about the symptoms of foreskin adhesion at Tianchang Circumcision Hospital.

Doctor's answer:

The inflammation of the foreskin and glans manifests as redness, swelling, and exudation of the foreskin and glans, or even reoccurrence of adhesion between the foreskin and glans. The inflammation of the foreskin and glans is mostly caused by excessive foreskin, leading to the accumulation of smegma, bacterial growth, and subsequent inflammation. It is recommended to take oral or topical antibiotics, and if the foreskin is excessively long, surgical removal of the excess foreskin may be necessary. The inflammation of the foreskin can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
