Patient's question:
Under normal circumstances, the glans is completely hidden, and even when erect, only a little bit is exposed. Under normal circumstances, the foreskin can be retracted, but if it cannot be retracted when erect, how can one distinguish between phimosis and paraphimosis?Doctor's answer:
Penile prepuce overhang refers to the prepuce covering the glans, where the glans cannot fully protrude. Phimosis refers to the narrowing of the preputial orifice or adhesion between the prepuce and the glans, making it impossible for the prepuce to retract and reveal the glans or making retraction difficult. If you have penile prepuce overhang or phimosis, it is recommended that you undergo a circumcision to avoid affecting your sexual life.For patients with urological conditions, in addition to active treatment, it is also important to maintain a positive mood in daily life. A good mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease.
