Patient's question:
I recently don't know what's wrong with me, my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. How long is the foreskin considered too long?Doctor's answer:
Penile phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin covers the glans in a flaccid state or during erection, but the glans can be manually retracted. If the foreskin remains covering the glans during erection and the glans cannot be manually exposed, it is classified as phimosis, which should be treated surgically. Your condition may be phimosis. Phimosis is defined as the foreskin covering the urethral meatus but being able to be retracted to expose the urethral meatus and glans, though it often coexists with phimosis. Phimosis can lead to premature ejaculation. Surgical circumcision may be considered, as it can reduce the incidence of penile cancer.
