Patient's question:
The child is three years old. A few days ago, they had a physical examination at the hospital. The doctor said there was phimosis.Doctor's answer:
Most normal boys are circumcised, and circumcision is not a surgical indication. A narrowed preputial orifice that cannot be retracted is not a surgical indication. Scarred phimosis after repeated infections is a surgical indication. In simpler terms, only the above two conditions should be considered for surgery. There is also a condition of excessive prepuce, which is recommended to wait until the child develops before determining whether surgery is necessary! I believe everyone knows that phimosis and phimosis 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 diet that is light and free of irritants. Additionally, regular follow-up visits can be scheduled when necessary.
