Patient's question:
My glans does not show when it is flaccid and does not show when it is erect either. However, when it is flaccid, I can flip the glans out, and the foreskin can get stuck, making it impossible to retract without manual assistance. What are the potential harms of this condition if it persists for a long time? Can this condition be cured with phimosis?Doctor's answer:
You say you have phimosis. You can pull back the foreskin with your hand. If it doesn't go back down for a long time, is there any danger? Phimosis means the foreskin opening isn't very large. You can forcefully pull back the foreskin with your hand. If it's left down for too long, it can lead to. Once swollen, you won't be able to put the foreskin back in its original position. I suggest you consider getting a circumcision surgery early! Phimosis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and it's prone to relapse after treatment. Therefore, it's crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor during treatment.
