Patient's question:
The child is 13 years old this year. Recently, it was found that the child has excessive foreskin. Can it be surgically treated? What is the approximate cost?Doctor's answer:
Hello, excessive foreskin is prone to retaining smegma, which can irritate the glans penis, especially the corona, for a long time, easily causing balanitis and posthitis. Additionally, long-term stimulation of the glans by the foreskin can increase sensitivity, leading to premature ejaculation. It is also easy to develop phimosis during sexual activity. From the perspective of preventing infection and improving sexual quality, it is recommended to undergo circumcision as early as possible. You can have the surgery in a formal hospital.
