WHAT IS PHIMOSIS?In intact (uncircumcised) males, phimosis is the impossibility or difficulty of fully exposing the glans ("head" of the penis). Phimosis is usually (though not always) caused by a foreskin opening that is too tight.
does it require MEDICAL INTERVENTION?It depends. Depends on the individuals' age, and on the fact that phimosis may be either physiological or pathological. Sounds complicated? Dont't worry, start by answering the following question: who's got phimosis?
