Patient's question:
Tonight while taking a bath, I noticed that after my penis becomes erect, the head of my penis cannot fully protrude. What could be the reason for this? Is there any way to treat or alleviate it? What should be done for a 13-year-old boy with phimosis?Doctor's answer:
Circumcision requires surgical treatment. Currently, the most common surgical method is the Korean circumcison technique, which causes less damage and is more aesthetically pleasing. It is especially important to note that you must undergo the surgery at a reputable tertiary hospital with experienced physicians to reduce the risk. Please do not have the surgery at private hospitals, as this may be of assistance to you. Circumcision can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover quickly!
