This is very degrading for men especially as they are unable to perform and function properly when having intercourse due to their loss of sensitivity. Due to the tight foreskin which surrounds the head of the penis men get regular infections in that area.
There are many males that have Phimosis and statistics have shown that around five percent of males are victims. One cannot die from this condition and treatment is efficient and quick. A condition of this nature can present with a painful red and swollen site and can also cause a severe discharge.
Prescribed antibiotics and hot soaks will control the infection as well as loosen the tight foreskin surrounding the glands and when the infection has cleared up the doctor will inevitably suggest a circumcision be done. A circumcision is performed under general anaesthetic and is normally a quick and simple procedure whereby the foreskin is surgically removed. Post operatively one will experience pain and will be very uncomfortable for a few days after the op.
In cases where the foreskin is not really tight but tight the Phimosis sufferer can pull the skin back himself tightly over the area of the penis or you can even insert two fingers under the skin and then open your fingers outwardly in order to stretch the foreskin.
A surgeon can perform a preputioplasty which increases the diameter of the preputial ring and no excision is needed. This procedure is performed under local anaesthetic. Men can also apply a tropical cream which contains steroids and there are also creams that do not contain steroids.
Phimosis treatments are safe and one does not have to worry about any side effects only after a surgical procedure you will suffer with some pain and discomfort. Should the penis be deprived of blood flow you will have to seek emergency medical treatment so that you can prevent any permanent damage occurring.
