This site discusses infant adhesions, skinbridges, phimosis and frenulum breve. During erection these conditions inhibit the relationship between foreskin and glans. This functionally restricts the erection, and thus has an effect on the sexuality. With our culture's attitudes on health care, it would be appropriate to monitor boys before puberty and encourage early prevention with conservative means. The adhesions must be dissolved or gently released at an early age to allow the development of a supple and healthy foreskin.
Adhesions restrict a child's exploration and self manipulation simply because they hurt.
It is generally understood that the younger the child is, the more flexible his skin is. Interestedly monitoring a boy's foreskin will automatically encourage a young boy to get inquisitive about his foreskin. Forceful stretching exercises will inevitably be painful and thus will discourage a child. To stimulate a boy's awareness, he should be asked to retract his own foreskin. Every infant boy has erections.
