What are the symptoms of excessive foreskin?

Patient's question:

I'm young, and my foreskin covers my glans, and it's very itchy down there. Every day, there's a lot of white discharge, and even after washing for the third day, there are still many smegma. I'm very troubled. How should I treat it?

Doctor's answer:

Hypospadias and phimosis may lead to the possibility of penile cancer. Modern scientific research has proven that smegma is a carcinogen. According to surveys, 85%-95% of penile cancer patients are either phimotic or have excessive prepuce. Phimosis and excessive prepuce not only affect one's own health but also, if engaging in sexual activity with a partner, can pull smegma into the vagina, stimulating the uterus and leading to cervical cancer. For patients with excessive prepuce, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If left untreated, it can affect overall physical condition.
