Is There Any Treatment For Phimosis Other Than Surgery?
hello sir,
my 2 year son is having problem of phimosis. we have taken a advice from a surgen and he advised us that there is no other way than surgery. I request you to guide us whether there is another solution i.e. medicine, other treatment etc.

Hi..In phimosis surgery is the only method which provides complete relief If the child has recurrent urinary infection then I would advice to undergo the procedure earlier as it will prevent chronic long term complications. Medicine will not be curative for phimosis.
