My doctor's have advised me to go for circumcision as I'm suffering from phimosis since childhood. And recently now new problem has occurred i.e Balatnitis .But main concern is that how should I tell my parents about this?

you can try a steroid cream first if you want to try to loosen it. There’s also a dorsal slit procedure. I guess you’d need to discuss the options with your doctor or a urologist. Some medical sites or doctors offices have quite a bit if I go I line too. Hygiene can keep you from getting infections either yeast or bacteria. Some people get yeast infections from time to time both men and women. I dont know how old you are or where you’re located. Some people don’t have full retraction until they’re fairly old or sexually active. Circ seems like kind of an extreme to me but it’s your body and it’s up to you as far as I’m concerned

Pretty drastic measure. I’d fix it myself.

Ah what do I say, it's okay till now ig . No major problems. No pain but you get paranoid about everything and ask your doctor, he simply says it's okay dw.

But you keep worrying. So if you can, take a second opinion on whether something else can be tried before circumcision
