Patient's question:
Before I was circumcised, it was. But after the procedure, it can come out. But it only goes out to 1/2 of the glans, but with my hand, I can retract it fully, but it's very painful. I'm 21 years old! I'm really afraid of surgery! I have a history of sexual activity, and ever since my first time, I've experienced premature ejaculation. I haven't dealt with "it" for 2 years now. Now I feel like my foreskin is a bit long, and I don't know if it's considered phimosis. Anyway, it's affecting my urination, and I always end up peeing on my pants. I'm worried about more aftereffects, so I really need to ask the doctor if what I'm saying is correct.Doctor's answer:
Hello, phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin covers the glans in a natural state or during erection, but the glans can be manually retracted. If the foreskin remains covering the glans during erection and cannot be manually retracted, it is called paraphimosis, which can lead to sexual discomfort, infections, and even tumors, requiring surgical treatment. Phimosis and paraphimosis require surgical treatment, which is simple and can be performed in an outpatient setting with low costs, approximately 300 yuan. Stitches are removed after 7 days, and patients should avoid spicy, hard foods, alcohol, and smoking.
