Patient's question:
The appearance has obvious excessive prepuce, without any discomfort, does it need to be circumcised? What are the options, how long does it need to be hospitalized? What is the best age for surgery, and what is the approximate cost?Doctor's answer:
Phimosis refers to the inability to retract the foreskin, with a narrow foreskin opening. In cases of excessive foreskin, it can be manually retracted to expose the glans. If phimosis is present, it is recommended to wash with warm water daily and gently retract the foreskin opening by hand, gradually retracting a little bit each day. With patience over one to three months, the foreskin can be fully retracted. Excessive foreskin also requires surgical treatment, which can typically be performed during adulthood, and regular cleaning should be practiced.
