Patient's question:
My boyfriend has severe phimosis. I didn't know this when I was dating before. Later, I found out that he was good at first. It lasted for more than 5 minutes, but recently I feel like he always disappears immediately. Is phimosis bad for men?Doctor's answer:
Because phimosis and paraphimosis can interfere with the growth and development of the penis, during puberty, the glans penis is tightly wrapped by the foreskin and cannot be exposed to external impact, which greatly hinders the growth and development of the glans, leading to excessive foreskin on the external genitalia. After sexual organs mature, the glans crown becomes significantly smaller, interfering with sexual pleasure. In adults, excessive foreskin or phimosis can disrupt normal sexual life. Circumcision is commonly used to treat phimosis. Excessive foreskin can be surgically corrected; if the foreskin is excessive, it should be kept clean and flipped back frequently.
