Taking a medical history, the family said that the child had suffered from phimosis for a long time. After bathing, the foreskin slipped down but did not return to its original position, causing phimosis with progressive swelling.
On February 21, Master - Doctor Phan Le Minh Tien (Department of Nephrology, Children's Hospital 2, Ho Chi Minh City) said that after examination, the doctors pulled back the foreskin and cut the foreskin to prevent recurrence. In mild cases, to treat this condition, you can use your hand to gently push the foreskin back to its original position. However, you need to go to a specialized medical facility for a doctor's examination. In serious cases, the doctor can make a small incision on the foreskin, or circumcision surgery is considered the last resort.
Dr. Tien recommends that, depending on the age, parents should clean and instruct their children to keep their private areas clean to prevent infection. Do not pull back the foreskin on your own; this should be done by a doctor. When you see any unusual symptoms in your child, take them to a medical facility for timely examination. This helps protect the child's health and future reproductive function.

Phimosis is a serious condition in boys.
Doctor Tien said that phimosis is a serious condition in boys. In this condition, the foreskin is stuck behind the glans and cannot return to its normal position. This condition can cause blood circulation obstruction, swelling and serious effects on the glans if not treated promptly.
"Children with phimosis often have symptoms such as swollen, red and painful glans; the foreskin behind the glans is tight and purple; the child may cry, be uncomfortable and have difficulty urinating. When children show abnormal signs, parents need to take them to specialized hospitals for examination," Dr. Tien recommends.
