What should be paid attention to when circumcising children with phimosis?

Patient's question:

I recently don't know what's going on, my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. What should I pay attention to when it comes to phimosis in children?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, when children have phimosis, it is essential to pay attention to hygiene. In most cases, phimosis requires regular attention to retract the foreskin for cleaning. Preventive measures should be taken to avoid balanitis. If it occurs, it is also important to avoid wearing open-bottom pants during childhood and to maintain good local hygiene. Generally, surgery can be performed for treatment after the age of 8.
