Does the circumcision surgery affect sexual ability?

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose:
I had a circumcision surgery for excessive foreskin when I was 20 years old, but until now, there is still a small piece of skin (about 1.5 cm) below the glans penis that hasn't disappeared. It doesn't hurt much when pinched with my hand. Currently, when I am erect, my penis is 13 cm long. Will this affect sexual life? At that time, the doctor said that if it were removed, it might lead to impotence, and also said it would gradually disappear. Please answer in detail.

Doctor's answer:

After the circumcision surgery for excessive foreskin, there is no impact on sexual life. If you do not undergo the surgery, it may affect sexual function. In addition to receiving proper treatment for phimosis, patients need to consult experts frequently and maintain communication with doctors. Patients should also pay attention to nursing aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, patients need to choose a reputable hospital for diagnosis and treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
