There are a number of phimosis stretching methods around. Finding the one for you can be tricky. In this article we go through some advice on picking the right method for you.

There are a number of methods online. Undoubtedly, online is going to be the first choice for many people. It was for me. It avoids the embarrassment of visiting a doctor and chemist and possibly hospital. As well as the embarrassment, it’s also very inconvenient. Luckily, stretching is perfectly safe to perform yourself.

There are some methods available free online. I tried a couple of these without great success. They tend to be short, incomplete and not fully tested. At worst, they can even be dangerous. I don’t know about you, but this is one part of my body I don’t really want to damage. The foreskin is delicate. Ours more so than most. So you don’t want to be taking any chances. I highly recommend you look at a few of the methods offered by established companies (those with a fully tested product that is widely advertised by people who know what they are doing and have studied the method carefully).

After being disappointed with the information online and comparing a few different products, I bought a this course online and it was much more satisfactory. The information was much more clear and complete. Plus it came with a recommendation from Health for Men magazine. I was much more comfortable trusting this source. They were very thorough in describing the full method of phimosis stretching and, even more importantly, were very careful to spell out any potential dangers. Following a method such as this will help you prevent tears that will significantly lengthen the time it takes to cure your phimosis and may even make the problem worse than when you started.

There was also something I noticed in myself. Either it was to do with the authority of the site or the fact I handed over money, I was much more conscientious in how I applied the technique. This may have been because I had more confidence that it would work. Whatever the reason, it did make me follow the course more strictly. This obviously has a big impact on the success.

Whichever method of phimosis stretching you choose, there are some things that will always apply. Make sure you start gently and slowly. Don’t try to force results quickly. Your body will adapt, but it takes time. IF you ever feel pain, stop. If you find yourself getting sore, slow down your treatment and return to making sure the skin is soft and supple. Treatment can take a little while. But in the end if you rush it, it will take longer.

I have some strong opinions on this one, so this post is likely to turn into a bit of a rant. If you want to avoid the rant, my conclusion is pretty obivous: I think phimosis treatment is the vastly superior option.

I find it very worrying that doctors (particularly those in countries where infant circumcision is the norm) see the default solution for phimosis as circumcision. This absolutely should not be the case. Surgery should remain an option only in cases where stretching has not worked.

Firstly, surgery always comes with risks. Infections, complications, accidents. They all happen. This study shows that circumcision has at least a 2% chance of serious complications. And here’s a case study of the link between adult circumcision and impotence. Obviously, it’s an area of the body that is very sensitive and one that is precious to most men. So obviously taking risks is not desirable. Surgery will result in pain and discomfort for a number of days. Any use risks opening stitches and necessitating more work. It will require you to use medication to avoid infection whilst the wound heals. Circumcision is not a quick and easy option. It should be the option of last resort.

On the other hand, stretching does not have the same risks. It is simple, safe and easy to perform. It doesn’t require any drugs. There’s no risk of infection. It’s cheap. It doesn’t require extensive medical assistance. Above all, it’s effective for the majority of men. I don’t understand why any doctor would reject this approach without trying it. It makes no sense to reject the technique out of hand. There is very little to lose from at least trying it. Even if, through bad technique, it makes the phimosis worse then circumcision is still very much an option. I suspect a recommendation of circumcision is often the result of ignorance.

I don’t wish to discourage anyone from consulting their doctor in this matter. But I do want you to know that circumcision isn’t the only treatment available. Always keep phimosis stretching in mind as an option. Even if the doctor refuses to accept such a treatment could be effective for you, there is nothing to stop you trying the technique yourself. You should, of course, listen to the advice of a doctor. But use it to form your own opinion of what is best for you. Because you are the one who has to live every day with that decision.

Phimosis Stretching: Can You Be Too Old?

Phimosis stretching is a highly effective treatment for the vast majority of sufferers. But as we get older the body isn’t quite so good at rejuvenating itself. So is it an effective treatment for those who aren’t so young? Those over 30? In their 40s? Over 50? Even retired?

The stretching treatments offered by advertisers online have been shown to be highly effective. Obviously this is slightly skewed towards younger people (since it is most often treated in younger people). But it is certainly still effective in older people. However, you do have to be more careful, a little slower and it is absolutely vital that you follow a thorough and safe method. So it is essential that you invest in a trusted and tested method.

As we age, the body is becomes less able to rejuvenate and the growth of skin cells (which phimosis stretching relies upon) slows. This doesn’t reduce the treatment’s effectiveness, only the time it takes and the care you need. You have to make sure you follow a carefully made routine of making your foreskin more supple. Make sure it is always well moisturized and that you don’t force growth. Forcing growth beyond that which the body can handle will result in tears setting back your progress.

Producing tears is even worse for older sufferers as they will take longer to heal. So at the first sign of soreness or pain be sure to stop or slow down and give yourself time to heal. Pushing ahead can be very tempting, but in the long run it is a bad idea. The only way to do it is slowly and consistently.

If you are following a fully tested method, you should have all the information you need to make sure that the treatment is successful. Just follow the course – it will be set up to avoid tears. Just be sure to be careful and listen to what your body is telling you.

If you are using a unstructured treatment (like the free ones on the net), you have to be extra careful. These methods can’t always be relied upon to be effective and safe. If you are an older person, it’s well worth investing in a safe, trusted and verified method of phimosis stretching to make sure you are safe and that the treatment will be fully effective.

Phimosis Stretching: Why Have Treatment?

The question of whether you should do phimosis stretching really comes down to two things: why would you want to treat it? And why would you choose this particular treatment. In this post we’ll be .

Why Treat Phimosis At All?

Health Resons

If you’re reading this, you’ve probably had phimosis for a very long time (usually since birth) without any huge problems. And it’s true that you can have phimosis without any problems your whole life. However, there are some medical problems that can occur and there are other reasons. The medical problems: the lack of foreskin retraction can cause a build up of smegma. This can result in an unpleasant odour and it has also been linked to cancer. There are ways, depending on the degree of tightness, that you can clean without fully retracting. But it is certainly more difficult and less thorough. So treatment is advisable for this reason alone.

Intercourse

A tight foreskin can also cause pain during intercourse (specifically when not using a condom). This can, obviously, cause many problems. You don’t need me to tell you, I’m sure. There are, again, other ways to get round this – heavy lubrication being the most obvious – but phimosis treatment is definitely an option that is worth considering.

Psychological

The other reasons you might consider treatment are more psychological. There is certainly an embarrassment factor to it. Having to explain it to a partner is never an easy moment. There is a very good chance they have never heard of it before, never mind seen it. How they react varies from person to person. Some girls like it, some couldn’t care less and some girls are freaked out. Whichever, it’s a conversation none of us relish having.

If you are anything like me, this has affected your confidence. Just the thought of the talk and how she’ll react is naturally going to play on your mind. It can’t help but inhibit you and make you questions yourself. I’d say this is one of the biggest reasons most men have some sort of treatment for their phimosis.

There’s no right or wrong answer to whether phimosis stretching is right for you. But with the process being cheap, easy and painless, you do have very little to lose by giving it a try.
