So you have decided to give manual phimosis stretching a try. But what technique should you use? What course should you follow? In this article, we try to help you answer those questions.
When you embark on a method of stretching your phimotic ring, it’s very important to find a method that you can trust, understand and carry out carefully. Look for a place that is trusted and experienced in these matters. Look for an established company with a strong presence. A good indicator of trustworthiness is a list of credited testimonials (preferably with some photographic evidence of the technique’s efficacy). Without this, you are just taking one person’s word for it. Their method may help you. It may not. If it is not comprehensive enough, it may even make the situation worse. So do be sceptical because this isn’t an area in which you want to be taking chances.
The most important thing with any phimosis stretching technique is to start slowly. Make sure your skin is prepared for the stretching that will be placed on it. It may seem frustrating at first, but it is vital that you increase the degree of suppleness in your foreskin before you put any pressure on it. A good technique will always ensure that this is done first. Without it you risk tearing which will set back your progress and, if it scars, will make progress more difficult.
On a related note, make sure you don’t continue if you start to feel soreness or pain. This is an indication that you are stretching too hard. Return to the earlier exercises and make sure you are well moisturized. This is a marathon, not a sprint. It’s understandable that you want to rush ahead. But your body will move at its own pace. A little patience is always rewarded.
Do be careful when you are selecting your phimosis manual stretching treatment. Make sure you choose a reputable source with an email address (or even a phone number) you can contact for professional help and advice. Even if you don’t have to use it, it’s great to know that it is there if you should have any queries down the line. Take a look at Cure Your Tight Foreskin (as recommended by Health for Men magazine) it’s a great course.
