Patient's question:
I feel like there might be an issue with my penis, as the head seems unable to fully show even when erect, only a little bit can be exposed. If I pull it forcefully, it a bit hurts. I don't know if this condition is considered phimosis or paraphimosis.Doctor's answer:
If the self-treatment is ineffective, surgery should still be performed in a timely manner. However, this self-treatment method is not suitable for individuals with severe phimosis, as it may lead to entrapment, causing the glans to swell and result in accidents. Circumcision surgery is simple and can be completed in just over ten minutes after local anesthesia. It can generally be performed at the outpatient surgical department of most hospitals without the need for hospitalization.
