Good afternoon Benson,
Taking your thoughtful questions in the order posed…
Seriously, I’ve wondered if it ever restricted the size when erect?.since the skin gets so tight??.of course only you would know this answer. ??
Probably yes, as men who have phimosis report that their glans gets bigger especially when erect.
I wonder if the ?Corona? is still intact and with proper ?form? being enclosed all these years. ??
Again based on our experience with bridges and phimosis I would think yes. There may be some adhesions which will have to re-epithelialize over. There are no iron clad assurances in medicine.
So you don’t see any issues with this repair?
No sir, I do not aside from the usual advisories for any incision.
Truly you are fostering a premalignant (that’s saying it kindly) situation, could even be exuding carcinogens during sexual relations. I know you would not get on board a plane even if there was a 2%
chance of a serious mechanical malfunction. Why take a chance with your glans?
Sincerely,
Harold M. Reed, M.D.
