Phimosis Paraphimosis

Service Details:

Phimosis and Paraphimosis are two distinct medical conditions related to the foreskin. Phimosis is characterized by the inability to retract the foreskin from around the glans (the tip of the penis). While a tight foreskin is normal in infants and toddlers, persistent phimosis in older boys and adults can lead to problems with hygiene, painful erections, and an increased risk of infections like balanitis. Paraphimosis, on the other hand, is a urological emergency. It occurs when the foreskin is retracted behind the glans but cannot be returned to its original forward position, causing it to become swollen and stuck, which can restrict blood flow to the tip of the penis.

The treatment approach for these conditions varies significantly. For non-urgent cases of Phimosis, we often recommend conservative management, which can include the application of topical steroid creams to help soften the skin and gentle stretching exercises. This non-surgical approach is successful for a majority of patients. In cases where conservative treatment is ineffective, or if the phimosis is severe and causing complications, a minor surgical procedure might be recommended. For Paraphimosis, immediate medical attention is essential to prevent tissue damage. Our specialists can typically resolve the issue by manually reducing the swelling and repositioning the foreskin.
