What is varicocele?

Patient's question:

When I am not erect, the glans is completely covered by the foreskin. When I am erect, only a small part of the glans shows. It takes some effort to pull the foreskin down by hand to reveal the entire glans. However, once it is exposed, it never goes back under... Additionally, I have not had sexual intercourse yet.

Doctor's answer:

If the foreskin is too long, it means that after an erection, the head of the penis cannot be fully exposed. When it is manually assisted to be exposed and there is no discomfort, this is called phimosis. I suggest you have a correct understanding of this matter. For simple phimosis, the necessity for surgery is not great. As long as personal hygiene is strengthened and cleanliness, hygiene, and dryness are maintained, it is sufficient. Patients must pay attention to rest and can engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
