Patient's question:
My foreskin is a bit long. I don't know what the harm is, mainly worried about whether there will be inconvenience in sexual life. Will it look bad if I have surgery? What are the harms of an overly long foreskin?Doctor's answer:
Penile prepuce is when the prepuce completely covers the glans of the penis, and the glans cannot naturally protrude, but the prepuce can be moved during cleaning, sexual intercourse, and sexual activity. Phimosis refers to a condition where the prepuce not only covers the glans but also cannot be retracted to expose the glans. The cost of the surgery can range from dozens to hundreds of yuan. Penile prepuce can be alleviated, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and patients should also maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
