What should I do if I find that I have excessive foreskin?

Patient's question:

Previously, when I was erect, I could completely flip it with my hand. But now when I'm urinating, I noticed that even a little bit of flipping causes pain. I can clearly see that the frenulum is connected. The problem is that I never had this situation before. I had read some information that it might be because I have excessive foreskin. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, it turned out that my foreskin was indeed too long. It's so annoying. What should I do about excessive foreskin?

Doctor's answer:

Excessive foreskin length leads to localized moisture, with some peeling foreskin and urine trapped inside, causing the production of inflammatory substances. Due to the accumulation of foreskin and other debris, it can seep into the glans or be transmitted downward through the urethral opening to the prostate, testicles, spermatic cord, and other important male reproductive organs. The best and most effective solution for the penis foreskin issue can be resolved through a circumcision procedure. It is recommended that you undergo a circumcision at a formal hospital. The patient should receive timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
