Patient's question:
No no no no noDoctor's answer:
Hello, it is necessary to have a circumcision if you have phimosis. This is because phimosis can make it difficult to clean the smegma, and the irritation from smegma can lead to conditions such as balanitis, urethritis, and prostatitis in men. Additionally, long-term irritation from smegma can increase the risk of penile cancer. Therefore, to avoid these risks, it is recommended that men have the circumcision procedure done as early as possible.
