Question
How to treat pediatric phimosis with the ring technique?
Answer
There are two methods for treating pediatric phimosis: one is phimosis mouth dilation, which requires medical treatment by a doctor. The other is phimosis ring incision, which is generally recommended to be performed when the child is 4-5 years old. Since children have weaker body resistance, phimosis is a common issue in pediatric surgery. Parents should not rush and should take their children to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment, and regularly conduct routine checks, following the doctor’s guidance for symptomatic treatment.
