∙ 9y agoPhimosis is a condition where the foreskin on the penis is tight and non-retractable. Boys cannot normally retract the foreskin fully until somewhere between the ages of 5 and adulthood. Force to pull the skin back should never be used. It can damage the skin and could cause a medical emergency if it became stuck in the retracted position (Paraphimosis).
Most cases of phimosis can be helped by natural treatments.
Gentle pulling and stretching is the usual method of widening the skin to retract easier. A topical steroid cream may be prescribed to help soften the skin and make it more pliable.
Masturbation methods can be altered to include pulling back and forth.
A procedure called preputioplasty can help widen the skin to retract over the glans. This is a minor surgery of cutting a small slit into the tight band.
Circumcision surgery would be a last resort for this condition.

How can you tell if you have phimosis or am starting puberty late?
Phimosis (a tight foreskin) and late puberty are two different problems that have little to do with eachother. If you are 15 years old and do not have pubic hair or have not experienced any of the other changes of puberty such as underarm hair, penile growth, or voice change you should see your pediatrician or family doctor. While it is usually perfectly normal for some boys to go through puberty later than others, occasionally delayed puberty is due to an existing medical problem. If you can not pull your foreskin back to expose the head of the penis, then that would be called phimosis. Phimosis is easily treated by using a series of exercises to gradually stretch the opening of the foreskin along with a topical corticosteroid cream. This works in about 9 out of 10 cases of phimosis, meaning that you'll be able to keep your foreskin and avoid a painful circumcision.
