Foreskin stretching requires patience and an effective daily stretching regime. The stretching can be performed manually by pulling the foreskin inwards towards the shaft, holding a stretch, then release and repeat 10 times. This should be performed daily unless foreskin irritation exists. Always avoid retracting fully if there is a risk of the foreskin becoming stuck behind the glans. Alternatively, phimosis rings can be fitted which prevents the need for manual stretching, and allows you to objectively measure progress.
