Patient's question:
Regarding phimosis! When erect, the glans is not exposed, but when flaccid, the glans can be retracted.Doctor's answer:
Penile phimosis can be divided into true phimosis and false phimosis. True phimosis refers to a condition where the glans cannot be fully exposed even when the penis is erect. False phimosis, on the other hand, means that the glans cannot be fully exposed in a flaccid state but can be fully exposed when the penis is erect. Men with phimosis should seek medical treatment early for circumcision. For non-inflammatory phimosis, it is not necessary to undergo surgery as long as the foreskin is regularly retracted and cleaned.
