Is Surgery The Solution For Inability To Pull The Skin Of Penis Back Fully?

Posted on Tue, 25 Mar 2014

Question: Hello Doctor, I'm XXXX& 27 years old, recently my mom told me that when i was 9 years our family doctor suggested to do a operation in my penis (separation/removal of skin which slightly stuck near the tip of my penis). Need your advice to go for the operation or forget it. Will there be a problem during penetration after marriage. Please advice. Thanks in advance XXXX

Thanks for the reply I have couple of questions, 1.How many days i have to stay in hospital in that case. 2.Can i do it one month before marriage. 3.Or during first penetration won't that skin peal off. 4.What will happen in future if i don't do this surgery I'm asking all this because i feel really shy to go to hospital for this kind of issue. Kindly advice a best option to go with. Thanks in advance Regards, XXXX
