Gender: male age: 16 height: 176 cm (5'9) weight: 64 kg (141 pounds) hello doctor, I have recently went through a physical urology examination and was diagnosed with tight prepuce and advised me either circumcision or dorsal slit with frenuloplasty. The urologist who examined me said that I don't have any scar tissue and that the curvature should be natural and nothing to worry about but I feel a hard tissue at the place of curvature when I have an erection, there is no pain at all whether it is erect or not. The curvature is overall about 7-12 degrees and curves leftwards. My foreskin also doesn't slides down to expose the glans when it is erect due to the tightness of the foreskin just a little below the tip. Is this normal or should I consult a specialist for this once again?

Hello-"phimosis" is the technical term for an un-retractable foreskin. The foreskin of the penis is not retractable in an infant or a young child. This is considered to be a normal part of development. As the child grows into puberty the foreskin naturally separates itself from the head of the penis, allowing for complete retraction. This becomes a particularly important function for the male in terms of hygiene, especially with cleaning of the penis and its head as well as in terms of sexual intercourse or masturbation. An acute case of phimosis may create problems for the person when he would want to pass urine or to perform sex, as this action may either be restricted or become troublesome. This is when phimosis becomes a medical emergency. It has been linked with an increased risk of infection, loss of sexual stimulation of the penis and even penis cancer. Traditionally medicine offers conservative treatment of phimosis. It is worth noting that in recent years, medicine has made great progress in this field. So, if you looking for a permanent solution for your tight foreskin, yes it is possible with ayurveda. Surgery (circumcision) can be avoided.
