Patient's question:
Discovered I have phimosis. Want to consult about circumcision.Doctor's answer:
Hello; This situation is likely considered phimosis. In general, surgical treatment can be considered for this condition. For your case, the preferred methods are electrocautery and laser surgery, which are currently more commonly used. The advantages are minimal bleeding and good hemostasis. However, because the cutting nature of electrocautery and laser involves high-temperature burning, a very common postoperative complication is local scar formation, which is larger than in the other two surgical methods. Usually, it's not a problem, but during an erection, the foreskin contracts and lacks elasticity at the wound site, causing constriction and resulting in penile pain. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a formal urology hospital.
