false phimosis; pseudophimosis
Medical term for a condition where the foreskin can be retracted but appears tight or non-retractable due to adhesions or a short frenulum, distinct from true phimosis.
False phimosis, unlike true phimosis, often does not require surgery.
True phimosis, where the foreskin cannot be retracted at all; more likely to require medical intervention.
Compound of 仮性 (false, pseudo-) and 包茎 (phimosis). The term is a direct medical borrowing from Western medicine, likely calqued from German or English terminology.
