Patient's question:
The other day, I watched a video of a circumcision surgery, but it was done quickly and wasn't too disturbing. My classmate's penis is also a bit long, so I thought about getting it done. I'm not sure if there are any risks and would like to know what kind of help is available: Is circumcision surgery easy to do?Doctor's answer:
Circumcision surgery is primarily performed on individuals with phimosis. Circumcision surgery is not a method to treat unsatisfactory sexual performance, and the surgery itself may also have certain postoperative complications. Phimosis refers to the condition where the glans cannot be exposed externally during both erection and flaccidity. It is caused by a too small opening, leading to issues such as poor hygiene due to inability to clean properly, which requires surgery. Excessive foreskin means it cannot retract naturally but can be fully retracted with manual assistance, and the opening is not too small. It is not necessarily required to have surgery; regular cleaning to maintain hygiene, along with gentle pulling of the foreskin to loosen it, can be sufficient.
