Patient's question:
The foreskin of my son seems to be too long. It was discovered when he was very young, but the doctor said the child was still too young and no treatment was needed. Surgery could be done before he fully develops. Now that he is almost ten years old, I guess he is old enough for the surgery. If this continues, I am afraid it will affect various aspects of his future.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello, in a natural state, the glans cannot be fully exposed, but it can be revealed by manually retracting the foreskin during cleaning. This is considered phimosis. If the glans cannot be exposed by manually retracting the foreskin, 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.
