What are the treatment methods for phimosis and redundant prepuce?

The treatment methods for phimosis and long foreskin mainly include non-surgical and surgical treatments. Non-surgical treatment is suitable for mild cases, primarily achieved through maintaining local hygiene, using topical lubricants, and other measures to reduce the accumulation of dirt and bacteria, lower the risk of infection, and alleviate discomfort during sexual activity. Surgical treatment is primarily intended for more severe or frequently problematic cases. The most common procedure is circumcision, which corrects the problem by removing the excess foreskin. The surgery is relatively simple, with a recovery period of about half a month. During this time, it is important to maintain cleanliness, avoid prolonged sitting or standing, and abstain from sexual activity to prevent wound dehiscence. The appropriate treatment method should be selected based on individual circumstances and medical advice.
