Normally, developmental non-retractability does not cause any problems. Non-retractability may be deemed [[pathology|pathological]] if it causes problems, such as difficulty urinating or performing normal sexual functions, but even then, this is rare, and, if the non-retractability itself is not caused by pathological inflammation, it cannot be called "pathological" or "true phimosis." A foreskin that is so narrow it will retract very little or not at all, but is not the result of a pathological imflammation, is accurately termed [[preputial stenosis]], and will respond to treatment including[[steroid]] creams, manual stretching, changing [[masturbation]] habits.
