Patient's question:
I am 15 years old and am a boy in puberty. Recently, I suddenly discovered that my penis has phimosis. According to the information I read, it may affect my future life, and I am very worried. I hope to undergo surgery for treatment.Doctor's answer:
Hello, excessive foreskin often leads to the accumulation of smegma. Prolonged stimulation by smegma may cause inflammation or even trigger cancer. This condition should be treated with surgery, and you can go to a local regular hospital for it. It's a relatively simple outpatient procedure. No hospitalization or intravenous fluids are required after the surgery. Oral anti-inflammatory medication and regular wound dressing changes will help it heal. It is recommended that patients go to a public hospital for examination and treatment.
