Stretching of the tight foreskin is a well-known and the recommended treatment of phimosis and paraphimosis.
Methods
Human skin can be stretched and normally returns to its normal size and position. But when stretching is done over a longer period of time, chances are that this stretching causes new skin cells to grow. We all know this from the skin which covers e.g. the human stomach or the breast area.
Basically, all curative or constructive stretching of human skin should be accompanied by applicating a cream or lotion to the skin. Betamethasone[1] is the most commonly recommended active ingredient. A cream with 0.05% betamethasone appears effective in treating phimosis in boys,[2] and often averts the need for circumcision.[3][4][5] It has replaced circumcision as the preferred treatment method for some physicians in the British National Health Service.[6][7]
Other recommended ingredients include Mometasone furoate 0.1%,[8] and Clobetasone 0,05%.[9]
Fingers
Where the phimosis is very mild it may be possible to stretch the foreskin by pulling it back tightly against the head of the penis. Or the fingers can be inserted into the opening and used to stretch the foreskin. If the foreskin is only slightly tight, a minor case of phimosis, then the stretching can be accomplished using fingers inserted into the opening in the foreskin and applying outward pressure.[10]
Devices
There are various medical devices available on the market which promise to help stretching the tight foreskin.
