Is there any harm in phimosis and paraphimosis?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, a few days ago, I accidentally hit the column with my reproductive organ, and it hurt a lot. After that, I went to the hospital for treatment. The doctor said that I also have the problem of phimosis. So I want to ask if phimosis has any hazards?

Doctor's answer:

If there is phimosis, it is easy to have smegma accumulate. If smegma accumulates, it can easily lead to inflammation of the foreskin. Generally, it is still recommended to undergo circumcision in this case. If you want to have a circumcision, you must go to a Class III-A hospital or the urology department of a reputable hospital. Never have it done in unqualified hospitals to avoid being deceived again. Phimosis can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually slow.
