A member asked:
I have recurring balanitis and was prescribed circumcision. instead of that is it possible to have the skin retracted 24/7 for a few weeks? (fix skin in place with rubber band) will this produce the same effect as circumcision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No it will not and pl dont even think about it. It can cause great harm.
