Patient's question:
Hello doctor. I am 24 years old this year and am still unmarried. A few days ago, I went to a bathhouse with friends, and they laughed at me, saying, "Your phimosis, hurry up and get it done before you find a wife." I felt quite embarrassed. I have known about this condition for a long time. I would like to consult you a few things: Is phimosis something that needs treatment?Doctor's answer:
Reappearance of phimosis, and for patients with phimosis, this situation definitely requires treatment. Without treatment, it can lead to shortening of penis growth, and after the penis is erect, excessive friction during sexual activity can cause the penis to experience pain again. First, phimosis can determine the implementation of circumcision surgery for treatment. The surgery generally takes about a month to fully recover, and the surgical incision does not interfere with sexual life.
