Penis glans and prepuce adhesion?

Patient's question:

My son is 13 years old this year, but his penis glans cannot be fully exposed. The reason is that the glans is tightly stuck to the foreskin. When I try to pull it down, he cries in pain. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it is considered that the phimosis has led to balanitis, resulting in phimatocele. After controlling the inflammation, it is necessary to have an early circumcision. Pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life, wash the external genitalia every day, and keep the local area clean and dry. The daily treatment for phimatocele patients mainly involves symptomatic treatment. Patients can take oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and pay attention to regular rest and avoid alcohol. It is hoped that phimatocele patients can recover as soon as possible.
