Phimosis: A Non-Surgical Approach to Promote Retraction and Restore Function
Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be fully retracted over the glans penis. While this is common in children and typically resolves naturally by adolescence, in adults it can cause pain with erections, hygiene problems, and recurring inflammation. In more severe cases, phimosis may progress to paraphimosis, a urologic emergency where the retracted foreskin becomes stuck behind the glans, restricting blood flow and risking permanent injury.
Innovative Treatment for Hard Flaccid Syndrome: A Multimodal, Regenerative Approach
Hard flaccid syndrome is a distressing and poorly understood condition that primarily affects men between the ages of 20 and 40. It is characterized by persistent penile discomfort, a semi-rigid flaccid state, perineal tension, and erectile dysfunction that cannot be attributed to typical organic or psychological causes alone. Because it overlaps with both pelvic floor dysfunction and neurovascular dysregulation, treatment requires a nuanced, multidisciplinary approach. At the Performance Medicine Institute, we combine pelvic rehabilitation with regenerative therapies and metabolic support to offer a comprehensive strategy for recovery.
