Patient's question:
I have a condition of excessive foreskin. Is it necessary to have it removed?Doctor's answer:
Your condition is slightly small in the foreskin opening, and the foreskin is not long, so surgery is not necessary. There are several cases where surgery is definitely required, such as phimosis, a slightly small foreskin opening, and urethral deformities, but it is not necessarily required to do this surgery now. There are approximately two main purposes for this surgery in the market: one is to improve sexual quality after surgery, and the other is to make it easier to clean the genital area. If the surgery is for the convenience of cleaning the genital area, then your surgery is necessary, but it is not necessarily required to do it at this age. The best time to do this surgery is generally in your 20s, provided the boy can maintain his own genital hygiene.
