Patient's question:
Hypospadias, I have seen some hospital brochures say it might also cause carcinogens, and I'm still a bit sad. But how big is the specific harm?Doctor's answer:
Penile phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin completely covers the glans penis when the penis is in a relaxed state. It can lead to sexual dysfunction, recurrent infections, and even the development of tumors, requiring surgical intervention. The surgery is relatively simple and can be performed on an outpatient basis, with an estimated cost of around 300 yuan. Stitches are typically removed after 7 days, and sexual activity can be resumed after about a month.For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can help reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may negatively impact overall health. Therefore, patients should take oral medication promptly and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
