Can phimosis be treated with a circumcision surgery?

Patient's question:

Recently, I started dating a girlfriend. During coitus, I discovered that after my penis became erect, the foreskin couldn't be retracted. When we attempted intercourse, there was some pain in both the foreskin and the glans. I was very worried about what might be wrong, so I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said I have phimosis and recommended that I undergo a circumcision.

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition:
You have recently found that excessive foreskin during sexual activity has caused many inconveniences. This can be resolved through a circumcision surgery. It's not a major procedure, and the recovery is very quick.
Advice:
Hello, circumcision is a method that blocks blood circulation of the foreskin, causing the excessive foreskin to necrotize. It is safe, minimally invasive, aesthetically pleasing, and simple. The surgery may involve more bleeding and a slower recovery, but the small incision made with scissors will leave almost no trace after healing.
