What is phimosis? What are the types of phimosis?

Patient's question:

Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the line breaks remaining as they are:
Has phimosis and paraphimosis, there is an ulcer between the glans and the prepuce, when the prepuce is retracted, there are two small blisters in the between the glans and the prepuce, which are a little purulent

Doctor's answer:

Hello, in a natural state, the glans cannot be fully exposed, but during cleaning, it can be revealed by manually retracting the foreskin. This is considered phimosis. If the glans cannot be revealed by manual retraction, it is classified as paraphimosis. Whether it is phimosis or paraphimosis, from the perspective of preventing infection and improving sexual quality of life, it is recommended to undergo surgery at an early stage. We suggest you visit our department of reproductive and plastic surgery for consultation. We use the Korean-style circumcision technique, which takes only 15 minutes to complete, resulting in a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance. It is beneficial for hygiene, health, and development, and significantly improves the quality of sexual life.
