Patient's question:
The foreskin can be retracted, and it can be washed. I'm afraid that as I get older, the foreskin won't be as easy to clean, so I want to consider surgery. Is that okay?Doctor's answer:
Excessive foreskin, in this case, generally requires surgical treatment. Excessive foreskin can easily lead to recurrent balanoposthitis, penile cancer, and can also cause inflammation to sexual partners. It is recommended to frequently retract and clean it, pay attention to hygiene, and it is best to undergo surgical treatment. Excessive foreskin can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms.
