Patient's question:
My foreskin covers the urethral meatus but can be retracted to expose the urethral meatus and glans penis. Now, even when my penis is erect, the glans cannot be fully exposed. The doctor said this is considered phimosis and recommended that I have surgical treatment at an early stage to avoid harming my wife.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello, in a natural state, the glans cannot be fully exposed, but it can be revealed by manually retracting the foreskin during cleaning. This is considered phimosis. If the glans cannot be exposed by manually retracting the foreskin, it is classified as paraphimosis. Whether it is phimosis or paraphimosis, from the perspective of preventing infection and improving sexual quality of life, it is recommended to undergo surgery at an early stage.
