Patient's question:
It seems like my husband might have phimosis, but he doesn't go to the hospital for treatment. I don't know what he's thinking. I'd like to ask, what exactly is phimosis? Will it have any impact? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
Hypospadias is mostly congenital. Due to the lack of timely detection and correction of the condition where the foreskin does not retract early on, phimosis may occur. If difficulty in retraction is noticed, it should be considered a possible case of phimosis, and it is recommended to undergo phimosis surgery as early as possible to avoid hindering the normal development of the reproductive organs. It is advised to maintain good hygiene, regularly clean and disinfect, and frequently change clothes and towels. Wearing loose cotton pants is also recommended. If the condition is severe, it is best to seek medical attention at a formal hospital.
