Patient's question:
My penis is covered by the foreskin when it is soft and when it becomes hard, but it can be easily flipped up and down. However, during sexual intercourse, the foreskin opening tightens around the penis when it is inserted, which is a bit painful. Can phimosis be left untreated?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is still recommended to remove the excess foreskin, as it has already affected sexual life. For the patient, if the condition of the male reproductive system is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered, and appropriate medication should be used. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of the male reproductive system disease. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a proper diet and keep a positive mood. If the glans is not exposed when flaccid, it indicates phimosis. With phimosis, you should clean the foreskin and glans daily, and consider surgery if necessary.
