Patient's question:
The foreskin cannot be returned to its original position, and there is also some sediment that forms a milky substance, with a slightly unpleasant odor. Sometimes it becomes red and swollen. Additionally, there is always a sensation of dribbling during urination, and it feels like the urine is not completely empty.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is important to choose the appropriate timing for surgery: If there is an acute infection of the foreskin, surgery should not be performed until the inflammation subsides; if there is chronic inflammation inside the foreskin that does not heal for a long time, surgery should be performed as soon as possible regardless of age, as this is beneficial for controlling the inflammation; if, after marriage, excessive foreskin or phimosis affects sexual life or causes infertility, surgery should also be considered. The best timing for surgery is to choose before any secondary lesions appear. Starting three days before surgery, the genital area should be soaked daily with warm water or a 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution; four to six hours before surgery, fasting should be observed.
