What exactly does phimosis refer to?

Patient's question:

I always thought I had phimosis. Two days ago, I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor confirmed it was phimosis and recommended I have a phimosis surgery.
What kind of help do you want: What are the correct treatment methods for phimosis?

Doctor's answer:

Phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin opening is too small, preventing the foreskin from retracting to reveal the glans penis. Surgical treatment is recommended. Since the glans mucosa is normally hidden under the foreskin, it experiences less friction and irritation, making the glans mucosa overly sensitive. During sexual activity, when the glans is exposed upon erection, friction and irritation between the glans and the vaginal wall can lead to premature ejaculation due to the excessive sensitivity of the glans mucosa, causing premature ejaculation.
