General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
You need to understand that surgery is the only possibility to treat severe phimosis, the condition you are having. There is no conservative line of treatment like use of creams or ointments, which would overcome your problem. Also, if you use such things, it may injure your penis and land up in complications like bleeding and infections.
Hence, circumcision is the only choice left over.
Hence, please make up your mind for this procedure. It is a minor surgical procedure which is done under local anesthesia under aseptic conditions. The procedure also requires very less time.
Kindly consult Sugreon in this regard at the earliest for appropriate management.
Wish you all the best.
