Day One:
Hi there, I'm Daniel and I have phimosis. Since I was 13 I began masturbation like most normal teenage boys. At first I thought my penis was normal, it wasn't particularly big, nor particularly as small as it was the year before. After a few months I finally started watching porn online and noticed that a lot of their penises were really different to my own. I put this down to the fact that I was still young and that eventually it would grow bigger. After watching pornograhy I also realised that they could all pull their foreskin over their heads when erect - I couldn't. Over the past few years I have been doing lots of research and have been put into some situations about me penis. One example is that I would never look for a boyfriend - I don't mind finding someone and doing stuff to them but when it comes to my own penis I feared it - this has made me really upset over the time. Now I am 16, going on 17, I have decided to try some stretching. I used to do this but never every day as I lost a lot of hope. Having this is a really upsetting thing and I sympathise with everyone out there who has it. However, this is very common and a lot of boys grow up having this these days - it can be due to wrong masturbation technique, too strong masturbation or it can even be natural. A few weeks ago I went to see a doctor privately - booking off the day from college without my parents knowing and walking down there. I waited for about 30 mins before he was ready to see me. I explained that I couldnt retract my foreskin when erect - he took a look at it and said 'Surgey won't help - just try stretching' and sent me on my way. I was a little disheartened at first as it'd took me so long to have courage to do this and for him to shun me out in less than 5 minutes. Nonetheless I have decided to start doing stretches today in hope that in around 6 months my problem may be gone! Keep following this blog for daily/weekly updates and share your penis stories with me! Thanks for reading this! Below are some pictures so you can get an idea about what we're dealing with here! Thanks!

Techniques that I'm using:
STRETCHING TECHNIQUE ONE
If the foreskin is very tight the simplest method is to pull back on the skin (easiest with an erection) so that the opening feels tight without real pain. Hold that for a few minutes and repeat a few times. Do this a couple of times a day. Soaking in a warm bath will make the skin easier to stretch. If the opening becomes sore, or develops splits, stop and let things heal up. Going at it too fast will only slow things down in the end.
Once the opening is big enough to just fit over the rim of the glans when erect the foreskin is at risk of getting stuck behind it. If this happens paraphimosis may develop. Stretching technique two avoids this risk.

STRETCHING TECHNIQUE TWO
You can either grab each side of the foreskin opening (with the foreskin forward) and gently pull on each side of the opening or, even better, insert the ends of two fingers, even the little fingers and pull them gently apart. Stretch the opening in this way until it feels uncomfortably stretched but not actually painful. Hold and repeat as for method one. Once again this is best done after soaking in a warm bath.

TIGHT FRENULUM
Sometimes the cause of difficulty in retracting the foreskin is not a tight foreskin opening but a short fraenulum (frenulum), also known as fraenulum breve. This can also be stretched though it is sometimes more difficult to do this. You can grab the underside of the foreskin opening and pull out away from your body until you feel the fraenulum stretching. Or if your foreskin opening is large enough you can pull back on the foreskin until you feel the fraenulum stretching. Hold and repeat as in the foreskin opening stretching methods.
If the fraenulum can’t be stretched then an alternative to circumcision is a frenuloplasty. It is a simple operation that does not remove any tissue but fixes the problem with minimal healing time
