If the foreskin is of adequate length, then the [[intact]] male will usually keep it forward for additional stimulation. Keeping the head covered by the foreskin protects the sensitive [[mucosa]] covering the [[glans penis| head]]. The motion of the foreskin stimulates the nerves ([[Meissner's corpuscles]]) in the foreskin. Use of lubrication is optional for [[intact ]] males.
Prolonged and/or vigorous masturbation occasionally causes [[lymphoedema]] of the foreskin, which causes swelling of the [[foreskin]]. The condition is painless and harmless. It usually resolves within about 24 hours.

[[Phimosis]] generally does not create any kind of difficulty with masturbation. It is ''not'' necessary to retract the [[foreskin]] while masturbating. Phimosed men may pull their non-retractile [[foreskin]] away from the body. There is some anecdotal evidence that phimosed males will stimulate their [[acroposthion]] more than non-phimosed males.
Beaugé (1997) stated that adult [[phimosis]] is caused by unusual methods of masturbation that fail to [[Stretching| stretch]] the narrow [[foreskin]] of childhood. According to Beaugé, the condition may be treated by changing one's method of masturbation so that the foreskin is pulled back against the head of the [[penis]] causing the [[foreskin ]] to stretch.<ref name="beauge1997">{{REFjournal
