Patient's question:
I have phimosis and lately, when I retract my foreskin, I noticed a foul-smelling, yellowish liquid and itchy.Doctor's answer:
Penile prepuce can be divided into true prepuce and false prepuce. True prepuce refers to a condition where the glans cannot be fully exposed even when the penis is erect. False prepuce, on the other hand, means the glans cannot be fully exposed in a non-erect state, but it can be fully exposed when the penis is erect. Men with prepuce should seek medical treatment early for a prepuce. For non-inflammatory prepuce, it is not necessary to undergo surgery as long as the prepuce is regularly retracted and cleaned.
