Patient's question:
Doctor, hello! My foreskin is a bit too long, and during urination, urine always gets left on the foreskin, which often causes inflammation. I want to go to the hospital to have my foreskin trimmed in the next two days and would like to understand the costs early on. Is there a need to fast before the surgery?Doctor's answer:
You have phimosis, and you should undergo a circumcision to expose the glans completely. This will prevent the accumulation of smegma, making it very hygienic. If you choose traditional circumcision, you should take oral antibiotics at home after the surgery to prevent postoperative infection. If you use a disposable circumcision stapler for the procedure, the condition of phimosis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication.For male patients, it is important to actively seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, maintain a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
