Is the foreskin a bit long and can it be cut?

Patient's question:

The foreskin is a bit long, but it can be retracted well. However, the frenulum is somewhat short, and it causes pain when erect. What kind of surgery should I consider in my case? Should I just get a circumcison?

Doctor's answer:

More cleaning and washing will suffice. No surgery is a universal solution, and it also carries certain risks. If the foreskin can be flipped back properly and the glans can be fully exposed during erection, the necessity for surgery is not great. Regular cleaning and washing are sufficient. It should be noted that circumcision also carries certain risks. A long foreskin can be stabilized, 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 maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
