What should be done about phimosis in children?

Patient's question:

Hypospadias. Hypospadias, can it be cured without surgery?

Doctor's answer:

The child's condition should be treated with surgery, as there are no very effective treatment methods. The following situations should consider surgery: 1. Pathological phimosis with a fibrous stricture ring at the preputial orifice. 2. Recurrent balanoposthitis. 3. Severe preputial orifice stricture after school age, where the prepuce cannot retract to expose the glans, and rigorous treatment has been ineffective. If there is no glans or preputial infection, and no urination difficulties, it can be carefully observed, and treatment is not needed for the time being.
