I have Phimosis. Suggest me how to cure it by retracting the foreskin back please. I don't want to undergo surgery.

Question

The foreskin cannot be retracted if there is phimosis. 'Circumcision' surgery is the only option. It is a minor operation done in less than 20 minutes.

Its a very small procedure which takes barely five to seven minutes done under local anesthesia and you will get rid of the foreskin for life and will be. Relieved for life. I urge you to consult an urologist who will help you with the circumscision. Please relax and get the procedure done. If you need any consultation/clarification from me you can contact me at my Hyderabad clinic. All the best.

Dear Lybrate user. Phimosis is a congenital narrowing of the opening of the foreskin so that it cannot be retracted. Phimosis is a very common problem. In most of the cases you can clear the problem yourself. Phimosis could cause moderate to severe pain while having vaginal intercourse. Apply oil on your foreskin and on the glans. Move the foreskin forward and back slowly without hurting you much. Because the oil is lubricant, it will be easier than without oil. Do this forward and back movement 20 times several times in a day. Repeat the same every day for around one month. You will get the elasticity and you will be able to retract the foreskin completely. In case if there is no result from the above massage, you can always go for a minor surgical procedure called circumcision. Take care.
