A member asked:
Should i get phimosis treated?i can retract the foreskin when flaccid but not when erect.causes slight discomfort during sex.does it need correction?

Yes you should: Sex should be pleasurable rather than uncomfortable. May respond to prescription strength steroid cream such as Betamethasone or kenalog (triamcinolone). Dr will need to precribe. Aklternatives include circumcision or prepucioplasty.
