Since the foreskin contains a high number of Langerhans’ cells it can be easily stretched and manipulated since they actually grow longer with stretching exercises. It’s time consuming but much more convenient than surgery.

I could retract mine around 9 -10? Can't exactly remember now, but it was before puberty. Well anything you couldn't notice. I just discovered I could. It was stinky, but sorted that out! Never knew that you never use soap as soap is quite alkaline and the underneath Is mucosal skin and that is why. Always pee retracted as urine is acidic and especially when your an older man and skin generally becomes susceptible with age, as the acid damages your skin. -Of the fine blood vessels and nerves too. 😟 Use vaseline on your knob and foreskin- still on your knob if circumcised, because as you do get older- well anyone can leak urine some and this is a good protector to prevent skin irritation and therefore yeast infection. 😮😊😁

@@DrBretPalmer A dermatologist said for me to use it. It actually dries after a while and you can't even feel it on. Sparingly applied. I used to use a lanolin cream and when needed, an anti fungal cream. I don't require those things now at all. He said don't use the lanolin based cream. I have type II diabetes, that is pretty much in control, but I think this was why I was getting what looked like a little fungus thing showing as redness and some tenderness.

I was told the foreskin stretchy but if you roll the foreskin over your finger at the end, it feels like an O-ring. That can only stretch a little and sometimes it closes off so you can’t pee so would circumcising the problem area Of foreskin Only and only take it off or you absolutely have to would that solve the problem. My last question is. Which type of circumcision leaves less scarring tissue. This will also include the plastic piece that they can go and cramp on to the foreskin.

The first item is to free up the foreskin, if this can occur then the sensitivity will reduce. To free up the foreskin you can use stretching rings, or see a urologist and consider a slit or circumcision depending on your view of your foreskin.

Hi there, practice retracting the foreskin and may loosen with time. With regards to smegma removal, you can try to have a bath, no soap and retract the foreskin and allow the penis to soak for 15mins this will help remove the smegma over time. You can use an emollient and practice retracting the foreskin every time you pee then splashing water on it to wash off any urine. This, over time will help clear up the smegma. I hope this helps.

Im not having pain or any discomfort as of now, but im terrified by the idea of developing paraphimosis or any other complications during intercourse.

No pain is great, if you can perform all the functions you require then you don't have to be too concerned. If you want to free the foreskin up, then a steroid cream may not work. You can get it reviewed by a doctor, to make sure the skin is healthy, but they may recommend circumcision, which you don't need if all working. Alternatively, you can do stretching exercises to help free the foreskin up.

Usually should be okay. Steroid cream should only be applied sparingly to the tight band of skin causing the phimosis - the doctor who prescribed the cream should of explained how to apply and for how long. Usually no longer than a month and stop immediately if you get skin thinning, or other unwanted changes.

Yes, Phimosis is a hard battle to conquer for some... I'm currently at a roughly 10mm opening.(im my 40's) I never had issues until about 3 years ago, it started closing in little by little. Tried cream... tried rings(which works for awhile)..but now I'm just wondering what to do. There's no pain, no discomfort during intercourse. I have to clean with Qtips and I use a clean, empty soap bottle tip that fits perfectly under the skin to pump water underneath(Tips for guys who need this). Anyway... Doctor keep saying to monitor... but doesn't seem to be worried. Which is weird. Anyone have ideas? Should I try different rings? Should I try different creams or am I doomed to circumcision?

Hi, doc I’m 13 and my foreskin is too tight to pull back at all I was wondering what to do?
@DrBretPalmer 6 күн бұрын
To tight as nothing will move or can at least see the tip. Generally the more you practice the easier it gets. Try retracting every pee time, this helps free up the foreskin over the months.

Im 17 and I cant retract it all the way. It kinda hurts when I retract it as far as i can go. When i take showers i can retract it quite far but not all the way. I'll be able to pull it back all they way like once a week or something. Idk what to do. And also when I wee it smells like fish and its not nice. pls help
@DrBretPalmer 8 ай бұрын
Hi there. Sorry for the late reply. Hopefully, in a few years, it should free up more. But the more you retract, the easier it should become. If it smells, then watch the hygiene video. Retract as far as is comfortable when urinating then, if in a private bathroom, wash the head of the penis, don't use soap, can use an emollient. All this should help. Take care Bret

Can do. Depends how tight the phimosis is to be honest. I've little experience with them. Usually if the phimosis is causing pain then circumcision is usually recommended when infections are ruled out. I hope that helps

Mine has happened off and on o er many years mainly last 35 , but over two years it’s never got back to normal like previously it is impossible now to retract it at all , the skin has shrunk so Amal I have given up I have no sex life at all , im thinking of using these rings along with. Cream that’s advertised on the net , as I have been referred to specialist that was two years ago , still not seen anyone all I can say is I’m completely disgusted with the U.K. NHS they just say there’s a king waiting list can’t help go away I’m so depressed it’s ruining my life what left of it I have I’m 66

@Genghis-Khan121 hi there, a sexual health clinic will probably not help you on this matter. GP will refer you to a urologist. Buy all means try the stretching rings. The other option is circumcision. Does depend on what direction you are going. If circumcision, then informing the GP of the effect this is having on your mental health may help speed the process. I agree the NHS is not in a good place, that's because the UK government is running it into the ground so they can privatise it. At the next election, don't vote conservative.

@DrBretPalmer 4 ай бұрын
Hopefully will ease up with time as you get older. Some guys do just have a tight frenulum, occasionally during sex it can tear a little, this will bleed, not to worry just hold bleeding area for 10 mins with a tissue if this does occur. I wouldn't be too concerned about it.

Not always, depends on the reasons. Can be self cleaning but if there's a problem and people have phimosis, which is life long, then they tend to go down the circumcision or slit route.

Hi, I’m 15 and still haven’t retracted it fully yet, I can do it half way but then it starts to hurt. what reminded me to try it now is that… okay it sounds stupid but I was playing in the woods with friends and the day after that there was a tiny leaf on the glans, but obviously covered by the foreskin so I can’t get to it.. I’m guessing it somehow got in my underwear and entered in my sleep. It hasn’t gone completely in obviously but ny glans are very sensitive so in the morning when I am erect, it REALLY like REALLY hurts meaning I can’t get erect. Please can I have any tips on getting this little leaf out without operation or surgery. I’ve tried tweezers but when I go in the foreskin shuts because I can’t hold it open at the same time.. I know it’s stupid I’m sorry for the long comment. I’m scared to tell my parents as I find it quite embrassing. Any tips would be greatly appreciated because I literally can’t get enough sleep because I keep waking up a 5 am because of the pain and discomfort this is causing. Thanks so much Doc.

Sorry for the late reply. Have a bath, relax and gentle retract the foreskin, then wave the penis under the water and hopefully the leaf will come loose. But also maybe less sensitive and could pick it off under water. Good luck. Let me know how it goes.

Does depend on the cause of the tight foreskin. If just too narrow and tight then may need stretching rings. For some guys it is just too tight. However if all works fine and no problems then this is all good.

@cks7548 hi there, I agree this issue is blow out of proportion by the pro and anti sections. I'm neutral on the subject and from the UK, circumcision is only really used for medical reasons or religious reasons.

@cks7548 actually removing the foreskin in a teenager or adult doesn't change the risk of penile cancer. With regards to infections, yes a circumcised penis is easier to keep clean and prone to less irritation but also remember babies do get infections and a few die because of the operation. It's natural to have a foreskin and for most easy to keep clean. Can stretch the foreskin in adults where it is tight
