Patient's question:
We have been divorced for more than a year. His foreskin is very severe. I wonder if it's due to excessive foreskin and whether he needs a circumcision. How to deal with phimosis in adolescents without surgery? How to handle phimosis in adolescents without surgery?Doctor's answer:
If the penis cannot fully reveal the glans when fully erect, it is considered to have phimosis. Phimosis does not necessarily require surgical treatment. If you indeed have phimosis and it repeatedly causes balanoposthitis or urinary tract infections, then surgical treatment should be considered. If there are no repeated occurrences of inflammation or infections, maintaining good personal hygiene and keeping the external genital area clean and dry is sufficient, and surgical treatment is not necessary.
