Urination: Revise text.
If the [[foreskin]] is non-retractable, then a rubber-bulb ear syringe may be used to squirt warm water into the [[foreskin]] to flush it out for an occasional washing. Washing is recommended before and after sex and as desired to remove accumulated [[smegma]].
== Urination==
Men [[Intact]] men sometimes ask, "do I have to retract my foreskin when I pee?" They may have been told heard myths that it is unhealthy to have [[urine]] inside the foreskin. There is no factual basis for that claim. Urine is normally sterile when it leaves the urethra. Boys by necessity pee through their [[foreskin]] because it does not retract. Phimosed men also pee through their foreskin because the foreskin does not retract. It is not necessary to pull back when you pee.
Everything in the preputial sac is covered with [[Mucosa| mucosal membrane]] (similar to the inside of your mouth), which likes to be wet, so no damage or threat to health is caused by having urine inside the foreskin.
