Patient's question:
Hello, I've always felt that I have phimosis. Now that I have a girlfriend, I think phimosis is not very hygienic and can also cause my sex to be short. My girlfriend said I should have surgery. Do I have to have surgery? I'm very worried.Doctor's answer:
Excess foreskin can lead to sexual discomfort and infections, and in severe cases, it may even develop into tumors, requiring surgical treatment. The surgery is simple and can be performed on an outpatient basis with low costs. Stitches are removed after 7 days, and sexual activity can be resumed after a month. Additionally, it is recommended to avoid spicy, hard foods, alcohol, and smoking.
