Rings NSFW

Where exactly do you get rings? Do ear tunnels/gauges work? I see people recommending phimocure but I tried ordering from them before waited 3 months before canceling. I’m also US based.

Is this a short frenulum or something else? NSFW Spoiler

35m. Phimosis my entire life but never really cared until recently. Just starting stretching, can retract at all when hard, can really go further when flaccid either. Worried that my frenulum isn't just short but...malformed? Basically it tugs wildly to the left. Is this just because the ring is too tight so it's out of position?

I've been doing stretching exercises for a month with this gadget from Ebay. https://www.ebay.es/itm/136520438308

1 hour each day and apply moisturizer cream (NO steroids). It's really confortable to use compared to others I tried to use in the past.

I'm not sure what stage of phimosis I'm in. This last month improvements are there but they are small. Take in consideration that my base phimosis is mild.

How do you see it?

This is a place to share information about tight foreskin and talk to others who have fixed their issues with tight foreskin problems, phimosis, frenulum breve and preputial adhesion.

Circumcision is not the only option for treating phimosis. Conservative treatment methods are effective in more than 90% of cases for young men.

Please say at least roughly how old you are if you're asking for advice.

There are two very different types of phimosis.

⋅ The foreskin normally grows with the rest of the penis. Congenital phimosis results when the foreskin fails to grow. This is a normal developmental condition that occurs in a small fraction of men (around 5%). In most cases it can be resolved with a gentle tension regimen to stimulate growth.

⋅ Pathological phimosis is a serious inflammatory skin condition also known as lichen sclerosus or balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO) that makes the skin grow thin and white and progressively tighter. It may be treatable without surgery in some cases, or it may require surgery. r/lichensclerosus is about pathological phimosis.

Frenulum breve is the condition where the frenulum is too short restricting full retraction.

Preputial adhesion with intact foreskin is usually a minor skin connection that can be separated (adhesiolysis) with gentle traction over time.
(Preputial adhesion may also occur as a complication of infant circumcision, in which case it more likely requires surgical correction.)

Paraphimosis is a potential medical emergency where the foreskin becomes trapped behind the corona and swells forming a tight band of constricting tissue. It is a common accident medical professionals make with infants. It can be prevented by returning the prepuce to cover the glans by holding the penis with the palm and fingers of one or both hands and pressing the glans down with one or both thumbs to squeeze the blood out of the glans at the same time as pulling the skin back up over the glans.

Fungal infection (penile thrush/yeast infection/jock itch) is a common problem with phimosis. Fungal infections cause dry, chapped, easily cracked skin that may itch or burn and easily tear. The tears may feel like paper cuts. Fungal infection can make stretching ineffective even with corticosteroid cream.

In most cases fungal infections are easily avoided with better hygiene before sleep. Soap is not advised but a clean washcloth should help. It may help to moisturize after washing especially with a product that cannot support fungal growth like castor oil, olive oil or mineral oil.

When hygiene alone is insufficient, there are anti-fungal products like clotrimazole cream. Brand names of over-the-counter products include Canesten, Mycelex and Lotrimin AF. They are most effective when applied after washing before going to sleep. If over-the-counter products are ineffective, a doctor can prescribe stronger products.
