Phimosis incarceration affects penile development, depending on the specific circumstances. Phimosis incarceration
is generally caused by narrowing of the outer opening of the foreskin, which is caused by incarceration in the coronary sulcus when it is forcibly turned up or down. It is usually manifested as acute onset. Early and timely reduction by manipulation, or treatment by dorsal incision of the foreskin, generally has a good prognosis and will not affect penile development. However, if the pathological state lasts for a long time and does not cause enough attention, it may lead to blocked blood circulation in the penis, causing ischemia, thus affecting penile development.
