Excessively long foreskin in males can obstruct the normal growth of the genital area and may lead to underdevelopment, potentially resulting in an unusually small penis. Later in life, this condition may cause a lack of sensation during sexual intercourse. Therefore, timely surgical intervention is necessary when the foreskin is overly long. Currently, such surgeries are typically minimally invasive. Post-surgery, it is essential to maintain cleanliness and dryness of the genital area to prevent infection.
