Patient's question:
Do all boys need to be circumcised? When is the appropriate time to do it?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Whether you need to have your foreskin circumcised depends on your own situation. It depends on whether you have phimosis. Phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin completely covers the glans penis, but the foreskin opening is not small and can be retracted to reveal the glans. In infants and young children, phimosis is often physiological. If the glans penis still cannot be exposed after reaching puberty, it can be considered either phimosis or excessive foreskin.
