Patient's question:
Penile phimosis, unable to retract, has many cracks and is swollen. There are also many urine alkalis. Can penile circumcision be performed now?Doctor's answer:
Currently, your symptoms are considered phimosis, which is caused by excessive foreskin. This condition can be treated with surgery. Surgery is divided into conventional surgery and minimally invasive surgery. Conventional surgery requires stitches, while minimally invasive surgery does not require stitches. The former is less expensive, and the latter is more expensive. Phimosis can be resolved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, patients should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
