Patient's question:
My foreskin is too long, and I don't know what the effects would be if I don't get it cut or if I do. What are the complications of phimosis?Doctor's answer:
Hypospadias and phimosis are the main complications that can lead to infections of the genitalia, causing frequent inflammation of the foreskin and glans. Therefore, when frequent infections occur, a circumcision surgery can be performed, which has a certain preventive effect for this condition. Patients with simple hypospadias who maintain good hygiene of the genitalia daily may not necessarily need surgery.
