Patient's question:
When I was a child, I got infected and had a circumcision. The surgery was done, and the skin grew back together. Only a small part of the glans is exposed, and it doesn't affect urination.Doctor's answer:
First and foremost, it is important to understand the dangers of excessive foreskin. Excessive foreskin can allow bacteria to grow and multiply within the foreskin, leading to infections in other tissues of the reproductive and urinary systems. Over time, it may trigger conditions such as premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction in men. Additionally, excessive foreskin can harm the health of the female partner. During sexual activity, bacteria can infect the woman, making it easier for her to develop vaginal infections, pelvic inflammatory disease, and other conditions. This can directly or indirectly affect male fertility. Considering both the prevention of infections and the improvement of sexual quality, it is recommended that you address the condition properly and undergo circumcision as soon as possible to avoid repeated infections and potential malignancies in the reproductive system. Also, pay attention to maintaining local hygiene and cleanliness.
