What exactly is Phimosis?

After puberty virtually all males that happen to be uncircumcised can fully retract their foreskin from the head of the penis both when flaccid and erect. Yet it’s not uncommon for certain guys to be incapable of achieve full retraction well into adulthood. Phimosis is a condition in which the male foreskin is overly tight consequently it cannot easily be retracted from the head of the penis. Phimosis has got the possibility to cause infection or considerable pain during sexual activity. Where a tight foreskin does fully retract during lovemaking it may well get trapped below the head of your penis causing it to swell, this is known as Paraphimosis.

Phimosis stretching at home

The problem of Phimosis is where there’s an inability to retract the foreskin over the glans (head) of your penis. Paraphimosis is the entrapment of the retracted foreskin below the head of your penis. In the largest part of cases the tight foreskins which result in the above conditions could be loosened sufficiently after a couple of weeks of persistent foreskin stretching. Eventually this stretching process will encourage the development of new skin cells, that will enable normal retraction. This phimosis therapy is essentially the most practical and logical first step to coping with the problem.
