Patient's question:
I really don't know what is called phimosis and what is considered phimosis. When my foreskin is retracted, the entire glans can be exposed, but in the middle, there is still a connection between the glans and the foreskin. It's a bit uncomfortable when erect, specifically at the part where the glans and foreskin are connected. Does this count?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello, in a natural state, the glans cannot be fully exposed, but it can be revealed by flipping it up with your hand during cleaning. This is considered phimosis. If flipping it up with your hand does not reveal the glans, it is considered paraphimosis. Whether it is phimosis or paraphimosis, from the perspective of preventing infection and improving sexual quality of life, it is recommended to have surgery at an early stage.
