Patient's question:
Although society is quite open now, having excessive foreskin is not a big deal. However, when it happens to oneself, it can still be a bit embarrassing. But it cannot be avoided, so is it necessary to have the foreskin removed? How much does it cost to have the foreskin removed?Doctor's answer:
Hello, excessive foreskin is harmful to both oneself and one's partner. It can cause the accumulation of smegma, which is prone to causing various inflammations. These inflammations can ascend along the reproductive tract, leading to conditions such as urethritis, prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, and epididymitis. It may even trigger premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, and penile cancer. It affects sexual life, and at the same time, it can lead to repeated vaginal infections in women through sexual activity. Therefore, it is recommended to undergo circumcision as early as possible to avoid future complications.
