What should be done about excessive foreskin?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I have excessive foreskin? Is surgery absolutely necessary? What kind of interference will it cause during sex if I don't get it done?

Doctor's answer:

Penile phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin completely covers the glans penis in a natural state, and it cannot be retracted to expose the glans during erection. The difference from phimosis is that phimosis can be manually retracted to expose the glans. Excessive foreskin length is a risk factor for many urological conditions, such as balanoposthitis, premature ejaculation, and painful intercourse. Considering prevention and reducing the risk of urological diseases, it is recommended that you undergo circumcision as soon as possible. The surgery has advantages such as a short operation time, no need for hospitalization post-surgery, minimal psychological trauma, and inconspicuous wound healing that does not affect aesthetics. Additionally, always maintain good local hygiene. Wishing you good health!
