Phimosis Treatment in Gomti Nagar Extension, Lucknow – Swastik Urology Clinic
Swastik Urology Clinic in Gomti Nagar Extension, Lucknow provides specialised
evaluation and treatment for
Phimosis—a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract
over the glans penis.
Under the care of Dr. Aditya Sengar (Urologist), we offer
comprehensive diagnostic assessment,
medical therapy, conservative foreskin-preserving procedures and advanced surgical
options including laser circumcision.
What is Phimosis?
Phimosis refers to a condition where the foreskin opening is too narrow to allow
full retraction.
While physiologic phimosis is normal in children, pathological phimosis
in adolescents and adults
requires medical attention.
Causes include chronic balanitis, recurrent infections, scarring, poor hygiene,
diabetes or repeated trauma.
Symptoms may include pain, swelling, ballooning during urination, difficulty
cleaning the glans and
painful erections.
Pathological Phimosis
This form results from fibrosis and scarring of the foreskin. It often
requires medical therapy
or surgical correction. Common in adults who experience recurrent
infections or diabetic patients.
Balanitis and Balanoposthitis
Recurrent inflammation and infections of the glans and foreskin can lead
to progressive tightening,
making retraction painful or impossible. Proper evaluation and treatment
prevent complications.
Paraphimosis (Emergency Condition)
Occurs when a tight foreskin becomes trapped behind the glans and cannot
return to its original
position. This is a medical emergency requiring immediate reduction to
prevent vascular compromise.
Painful Erections Due to Tight Foreskin
A narrow phimotic ring may cause tearing, pain or bleeding during
erection. Long-term problems can
include scarring, recurrent infection and sexual dysfunction.
Causes & Risk Factors for Phimosis
Common causes of adult phimosis include:
1. Recurrent Balanitis – Inflammation leading to scarring.
2. Diabetes – Increased infection risk, poor healing.
3. Chronic Trauma – Tearing during intercourse or improper
retraction.
4. Lichen Sclerosus – Skin condition causing fibrosis.
5. Poor Hygiene – Accumulation of smegma causing
irritation.
Early evaluation prevents complications such as infections, urinary obstruction
and sexual discomfort.

When to Consider Phimosis Treatment
Phimosis Treatment may be recommended when symptoms persist, investigations show an important abnormality, or medical management alone is not giving lasting relief.

Frequently Asked Questions About Phimosis Treatment
When should I see a urologist for tight foreskin?
You should consult a urologist if you experience pain during
retraction, recurrent infections,
difficulty cleaning the glans, ballooning of foreskin while
urinating or painful erections.
Immediate care is needed if the foreskin gets stuck behind the glans
(paraphimosis).
Can phimosis be treated without circumcision?
Yes. Early or mild phimosis may respond well to topical steroids and
stretching.
Preputioplasty is a foreskin-preserving surgical option for selected
patients with moderate phimosis.
How long does recovery take after circumcision?
Initial healing occurs within 7–10 days. Complete recovery,
including resolution of swelling and
full tissue remodeling, may take 3–4 weeks. Laser circumcision
typically offers faster recovery.
