&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is Phimosis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Phimosis is&amp;nbsp;the condition where&amp;nbsp;the skin&amp;nbsp;is too tight and is unable&amp;nbsp;to be retracted.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;The foreskin usually loosens over time&amp;nbsp;with&amp;nbsp;regular&amp;nbsp;stretching. The process can take longer for some boys. However, by around the age of 17, a boy should easily&amp;nbsp;be able to&amp;nbsp;retract his foreskin.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;A simple way to determine if you have phimosis is to pull your foreskin back until you see the penis glans (the whole head of the penis).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is the difference between Paraphimosis, Frenulum Breve &amp;amp; Phimosis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot; href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/paraphimosis&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Paraphimosis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;happens when the foreskin cannot be returned to its original position after being retracted.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Long-term Paraphimosis treatment is circumcision&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Phimosis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;happens&amp;nbsp;when&amp;nbsp;the foreskin cannot&amp;nbsp;be retracted (pulled back) from around the tip of the penis.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Long-term phimosis treatment is circumcision.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;The long-term solution for &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot; href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/frenulum-breve&quot;&gt;frenulum breve&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Penile&amp;nbsp;Frenuloplasty or &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/circumcision&quot;&gt;circumcision&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Score to Determine How Severe is Your Phimosis Condition?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Phimosis only affects uncircumcised males and is more common in teens than men.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Score 1: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Fully retractable of the foreskin, tight behind the glans.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Score 2:&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Exposure of the penis glans is partial&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Score 3:&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Partial retraction and meatus just visible.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Score 4:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Slightly retractable; neither meatus nor glans can be exposed.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Score 5:&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Unable to retract the foreskin.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Phimosis is a Problem...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;When the foreskin is too tight it can cause pain, skin splitting, or a lack of sensation during sex for some serious cases.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;The tightness of the foreskin may cause interference with the passage of urine. The tightness of the foreskin may cause retention of urine and urine infection, hence, increasing the risk of infections of the foreskin and head of the penis.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Read: &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot; href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/diabetes-related-mens-sexual-health-urological-conditions&quot;&gt;People who have Diabetes will commonly experience foreskin infection and recurring balanitis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is the Treatment for Phimosis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;A simple stretching exercise of the foreskin could help with phimosis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot; href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/circumcision&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Adult circumcision in Singapore&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is usually the common treatment option for our patients if the problem is severe and stretching does not help.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Circumcision is also recommended when a person has a recurring infection of the penis, pain during sex, pain during erection, and such. Circumcision can help reduce the risk of HIV and STDs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
