How can we help you!
Tight foreskin, also called phimosis, means that the foreskin cannot be pulled back over the glans properly and easily after puberty. This can cause problems such as difficulty maintaining hygiene, pain or discomfort during sex, the foreskin becomes red and swollen, and difficulty urinating. The foreskin can be widened through masturbation, but it should not hurt as small cracks can occur in the skin, which in turn can form scars and thus make it difficult to pull the foreskin back. A common treatment for tight foreskin is to apply a stronger cortisone ointment that makes the skin a little thinner and therefore easier to stretch. During treatment with cortisone ointment, the foreskin should be stretched by pulling it back and forth slowly so that there is no risk of cracking. If treatment with ointment does not produce sufficient results, surgery may be the next step in which all or part of the foreskin is removed.

A short string on the penis, also called a short frenulum, means that the string that is attached to the underside of the glans and in the foreskin is perceived as short. Since it is not stretchable, it can lead to certain problems and discomfort, especially during sexual activity. It can cause pain or small tears can occur. It is not dangerous for the string to break. When the string heals, it usually becomes a little longer and then becomes less tense.
