Secondary phimosis: Tight foreskin needs correction for practical purposes & hygiene. Yeast infection must have been adequately treated. Foreskin might respond to twice daily steroid cream, such as betamethasone valerate, application to tight are twice daily. Otherwise may have to consider surgery, circumcision or less reliable prepucioplasty (tight foreskin ring is cut vertically & sutured transversely saving 4skin)

See urologist: See urologist may need antifungal med and if that doesn’t help discuss circumcision with the urologist
