Home treatment for phimosis

The problem of Phimosis is where there's an inability to retract the foreskin over the glans (head) of your penis. Paraphimosis is the entrapment of the retracted foreskin below the head of your penis. In the largest part of cases the tight foreskins which result in the above conditions could be loosened sufficiently after a couple of weeks of persistent foreskin stretching. Eventually this stretching process will encourage the development of new skin cells, that will enable normal retraction. This phimosis therapy is essentially the most practical and logical first step to coping with the problem.
1. Ridged band stretch: Insert the ends of two fingers in the inner sides of the foreskin opening and begin to pull them gently apart. Gently apply as much tension so the stretch feels mildly uncomfortable yet not painful. Hold in this particular position for 30 to 60 seconds, then relax for a few seconds before repeating. Keep this up (no pun intended) for as much as fifteen minutes and undertake it twice a day. Ideally try this after soaking in a warm bath. After being performed persistently this exercise will assist to avoid Paraphimosis that is where the retracted foreskin gets trapped below the glans of your penis which may be both painful and distressing. Should this happen make an attempt to ease the foreskin forward but when after several attempts you don't find a way to bring the foreskin go back over the glans then seek medical help.
2. The withdraw stretch: If it is the case that your foreskin is particularly tight and inserting your fingers in the opening of the foreskin is just not yet feasible then the easiest first approach will be to simply withdraw on the skin on the shaft of the penis so the foreskin opening feels tight but again without pain. Hole that stretched position for a few minutes and then relax. Again continue doing this process for fifteen minutes twice every day. Using this method works more effectively and more easily when performed with an erection.
Following the continuous practice of stretching over a few weeks the opening will get bigger and eventually arrive to the point where it can fit over the rim of the head of your penis glans when erect. At this stage make sure to avoid entrapping the foreskin behind the glans, known as Paraphimosis. Instead begin working on the first ridge band exercise described above. In both of the above approaches if your foreskin opening becomes sore or small splits develop you will need to stop and let things heal.
You may notice that since you progressively expose more of the glans (the head) of your penis it is super sensitive as well as painful to touch. Gradually this over sensitivity will subside as you continue your exercises. Try gently exposing the glans to the flowing water of the tap or maybe the spray from the shower to reduce sensitivity. Should you continue slowly applying this process it is actually highly likely you will have results after a couple of weeks, stop prematurily . however and most likely things will just tense up again.
You will also be able to ask your family doctor to prescribe Betamethasone 1% (or less) ointment. A small quantity of this medication can be applied to the tightest area of the foreskin. It'll accelerate the stretching process but won't work on its own, in the absence of stretching. Stretching will still work without using this the ointment, it will just take some additional time.
