Patient's question:
Recently, I suddenly found that my glans seems not to be able to be exposed anymore. I think it must be due to phimosis. I'm really worried that phimosis will have a significant impact on my future. I truly don't know what to do. The help I want to receive: What is the best treatment method for phimosis repair?Doctor's answer:
Hypospadias, due to long-term chronic irritation from urine and smegma, can lead to balanoposthitis, causing swelling, congestion, and erosion of the foreskin mucosa. This may result in repeated cross-infections and even reoccurrence of phimosis. If not treated promptly, the inflammation can spread downward along the reproductive tract, leading to inflammation of the prostate, seminal vesicles, and epididymis. It can also be transmitted to sexual partners during intercourse. Additionally, it may cause premature ejaculation. It is recommended that you undergo surgery as early as possible.
