Is this good or bad?!
Question:
Is this good or bad?
people r sayin' i have Phimosis so when i have my penis erected i try to pull it down it burns when i do that but the the pain goes away after a while when i masturbate...so is it good,normal,or bad?
Answers:
If it hurts to pull back your foreskin during an erection, then that's not good. Phimosis is when the foreskin opening is too tight/narrow for it to be retracted so the glans (penis head) can be fully exposed. Fortunately there are many ways to treat this.
The first thing you should try are stretching exercises. See link 1 for good and detailed instructions on what to do. Do these exercises for a few minutes each day for a few weeks to a month, preferrably right after a shower/bath when the foreskin's most flexible.
If that doesn't seem to work after a month, you might want to ask a doctor about certain prescription creams. In one study, these creams are the most cost-effective treatment a doctor can provide (link 2, names of creams listed in one of the tables). Be aware that these creams may take up to a month for the full effect, but you may be able to speed things along by combining them with the stretching exercises.
In almost all cases of phimosis the above treatments are all that're necessary. Anyone who suggests circumcision as a first/only option should be ignored, as these two treatments work really well (but you need a little patience). See the remaining links for more info and good luck with whatever you try.
