Patient's question:
My son discovered a long time ago that my foreskin is a bit too long, but I never went to the hospital to see a doctor, fearing it would affect development. Now he is 6 years old.Doctor's answer:
Hello, excessive foreskin in children can hinder normal development. During puberty, as the foreskin is tightly wrapped, development is significantly restricted. However, since the child is too young at the moment, surgical treatment is not yet possible. It is best to wait until the child begins to develop before consulting a hospital. Maintain cleanliness in the area, wash frequently, and avoid the accumulation of dirt, which will have no impact on health. Even if the child has phimosis and needs surgery at the hospital, it should be chosen during childhood. Wishing for a speedy recovery!
