== Cause ==
Paraphimosis is a perfectly avoidable, iatrogenic condition. In infants and young children, this condition may occur as a result of doctors, parents or caretakers [[forced retraction|forcibly retracting]] the [[foreskin]] of a child's penis. It may also occur in older males as a result of [[Forced foreskin retraction| forcible retraction of a foreskin]] whose orifice has not yet dilated enough to allow the [[glans penis|glans]] through. (See [[phimosis]].) The first person to retract a boy's foreskin should be the boy himself.<ref name="wright1994">{{REFjournal |last=Wright |init=JE |author-link= |etal=no |title=Further to the <q>Further Fate of the Foreskin</q> |journal=Med J Aust |location= |date=1994-02-07 |volume=160 |issue=3 |pages=134-5 |url=http://www.cirp.org/library/normal/wright2/ |quote= |pubmedID=8295581 |pubmedCID= |DOI= |accessdate=2021-06-02}}</ref>
