Question

A four-year-old boy is experiencing a long foreskin condition, and the parents are inquiring whether it is appropriate to undergo surgery this year or should they wait a few years to reassess.

Answer

For cases of long foreskin, it is recommended to have an examination and treatment before the age of ten. At this age, it is advisable to first observe and pay attention to the recovery situation. After surgery, avoid activities that may trigger symptoms, wear loose pants, and avoid eating spicy or irritating foods. At the same time, it is suggested to consume high-quality protein to promote recovery. The optimal age for surgery is approximately around ten years old. After surgery, pay attention to avoiding activities that may trigger symptoms, wear loose pants, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and consume high-quality high-protein foods to promote recovery.
