Patient's question:
At 17, my foreskin still cannot be retracted, and when erect, it can only be pulled back about 1/4, revealing only a little of the glans. What should I do? I want to do the surgery myself, but I feel too embarrassed to tell my parents. I'm quite introverted. However, high school studies are quite important now. What should I do? I've heard that the surgery will be very painful, and I'll need to rest afterward. I don't want to miss class.Doctor's answer:
The harm of phimosis is significant. Getting a circumcision earlier is beneficial for physical growth and development. For patients, if the condition of andrological diseases is severe, timely symptomatic treatment should be administered. Proper medication should be used to prevent the recurrence of andrological diseases. Additionally, patients need to pay attention to their diet and psychological care. The answers to these issues can assist everyone. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, rest reasonably, and ensure adequate sleep.
