Patient's question:
I recently don't know why my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I also don't have morning erections anymore. Is it necessary to have the foreskin removed if it's too long?Doctor's answer:
Hypospadias refers to a condition where the foreskin covers the urethral meatus but can be retracted to expose the urethral meatus and glans penis. Phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin opening is narrowed or the foreskin is adhered to the glans penis, preventing it from being retracted and exposing the urethral meatus and glans penis. Circumcision is commonly used to treat phimosis. Hypospadias can also undergo this surgery; if not surgically treated, it is important to pay attention to hygiene and regularly retract the foreskin for cleaning.As everyone knows, phimosis and hypospadias can cause significant harm to patients, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues—avoiding irritating foods and maintaining a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
