He has been unable to retract the foreskin<\/a><\/strong> for the past 5-6 years. He saw multiple urologists and was diagnosed with balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO)<\/a><\/strong>. He was treated with steroid creams with no significant improvement in symptoms.<\/p>\n After a discussion of treatment options, the patient decided to proceed with circumcision<\/a> <\/strong>with the understanding that his recovery will be prolonged (a few months) while the area heals. He was advised that he may require a skin graft but 80-90% of the time the area heals well without a graft.<\/p>\n He underwent circumcision with glansuloplasty with self-absorbable (dissolving) stitches 1 month after his initial consultation<\/strong>. The procedure was done under local anesthesia<\/a> and took just over 2.5 hours due to severe scarring. The patient was found to severe fibrosis and scarring. He felt minimal discomfort<\/strong> with a pain score of 2 out of 10 during the procedure.<\/p>\n On follow-up 2 weeks after the procedure via the patient portal, the patient reported increased sensitivity of the glans. He was advised that the sensitivity typically resolves<\/strong> within 1-2 months after the procedure. <\/p>\n On follow up via a video-consultation 1 month later, he reports that he has mild sensitivity. A review of the images that the patient uploaded to the patient portal revealed healing proceeding as expected. The patient had additional communications with the doctor via the patient portal on a regular basis.<\/p>\n 3 months after circumcision<\/strong>, the patient uploaded updated images after circumcision; the area was noted to have healed well<\/strong>. He was advised that he can resume sexual activity. The patient was highly satisfied with the outcome of the procedure.<\/p>\n You can find pictures of the tight phimosis and BXO of the penis as well as before and after treatment images in our image gallery<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer same-day circumcision treatment for men<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Call\/text today: 1-646-663-5545<\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/strong>or <\/span>make an appointment<\/span><\/a> online. <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n We perform cosmetic circumcision<\/strong><\/a>, circumcision revision<\/a><\/strong>, penile frenuloplasty, and offer treatment for phimosis, balanitis, penile irritation, and redness.
