What are the treatment methods for pearl-like papules?

Patient's question:

Circumcision surgery, treatment of pearl-like papules, does it have to take a week?

Doctor's answer:

Penile phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin covers the urethral meatus when the penis is not erect but can be retracted to reveal the urethral meatus and glans. Balanitis is a condition where the foreskin cannot be fully retracted, and the glans cannot be fully exposed. Many men with phimosis or balanitis also have pearly penile papules, which is related to excessive sebum secretion, lack of attention to hygiene, and residual urine impact. Phimosis requires surgical treatment. If phimosis is present and the foreskin becomes tight upon erection, causing a sensation of penile compression, frequent itching, and discomfort, surgical treatment is also recommended.
