What should be done about excessive prepuce?

Patient's question:

I'm just a student. I feel that my foreskin is a bit long. Do you need many pictures? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

Penile prepuce redundancy refers to a condition where the prepuce covers the urethral meatus but can be retracted to reveal the urethral meatus and glans penis. This condition is associated with hereditary factors and can be classified into true prepuce redundancy and false prepuce redundancy. Patients with prepuce redundancy should undergo early surgical treatment. For non-inflammatory prepuce redundancy, surgical intervention may not be necessary if the prepuce is regularly retracted and cleaned.
During the adolescent development stage, if the prepuce still covers the glans during erection and cannot be revealed, but can be exposed manually, it can be diagnosed as prepuce redundancy. It is recommended to seek follow-up at the urology department of a hospital.
Additionally, for patients with andrological conditions, diet and care during treatment are also crucial. Patients must pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries.
