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 and [[tissue expansion]] to occur. 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 steroid cream or lotion to the skin. Betamethasonevalerate<ref>{{REFweb

Where the phimosis is very mild it may be possible to stretch the [[foreskin]] by pulling it back tightly against the head of the erect penis. One should pull the foreskin back until one feels tension in the foreskin and hold that for perhaps five minutes. Do that twice a day.
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.<refname="glansie">{{REFweb
