Patient's question:
Although society is quite open now, and having excessive foreskin is not a big deal, when it happens to oneself, it can still be a bit embarrassing. However, it cannot be avoided and needs to be treated. How much does it cost for a man to get circumcised? What are the disadvantages of having excessive foreskin? Do I have to get treated?Doctor's answer:
Currently, phimosis does not necessarily require excision as long as there are no significant obstacles during sexual activity and local hygiene is maintained. There is no need for excision in such cases. Moreover, excision can affect the sensitivity of the glans, so if the quality of sexual life is satisfactory and there is no occurrence of balanoposthitis, no treatment is necessary. As everyone knows, phimosis and paraphimosis 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, with a focus on a light diet and avoiding irritating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
