Patient's question:
I'm also not sure if my little brother has phimosis. It looks like he does, always keeping the glans covered. He doesn't feel much during sex and I wonder if he can have the foreskin removed. What is a foreskin surgery like? Is it okay?Doctor's answer:
If the foreskin can be retracted normally, it is considered phimosis. As long as you pay attention to hygiene and retract it daily to clean it with water, there will be no harm, and it will never affect future sexual life! If the foreskin cannot be retracted normally, it is called phimosis, and then you will need to have a circumcision surgery. Otherwise, it will have adverse effects on growth and development, the reproductive system, and future sexual life! There is no need for surgery. It is best to retract the foreskin daily and keep the glans exposed. After a period of time, the foreskin will naturally stretch open. In fact, having a urological disease is not terrible. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as it is detected early and treated promptly, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high!
