What if phimosis left untreated because there is no discomfort or pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Phimosis: The problems with phimosis that should make one consider circumcision are painful erection/intercourse, recurring infection, severe cracking and bleeding of the tight foreskin and the inability to adequately keep the penis clean and hygienic.
