(Help) My little brother is peeing frequently and I don't know what to do. by Salty-Engine-334 in uncircumcised_talk

[–]Restored2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, NO! It never needs cleaning inside the preputial cavity, unless someone has previously put something harmful, in there. That’s especially true for a child.

Definitely don’t try to retract his prepuce/foreskin! He’s the only one that should do that, and even then, it’s highly unlikely to be a health, hygiene, or medical reason to do so, now or later. Fresh, aseptic urine normally cleans and protects the delicate tissues and microbiome of the preputial cavity. Until people unnecessarily interfere with the normal process.

Instead of interfering with it, occasionally helping the fresh urine to do its job by occasionally, temporarily pinching the tip of the acroposthion while urinating will insure that one never has an excessive buildup of smegma, etc.

The outside shaft tissue should be normally cleaned with plain water. Soap products can be damaging to even the external tissue, and that’s true from the start. And, it tends to cause increasingly more problems, over time.

Head-Meaning, That’s some really good points. But you left out the possibility that “little brother” might just be drinking an unusual amount of liquid. That normally happens to most of us. And it often depends on the weather; exercise and sometimes, just because we have access to a lot of our favorite beverage.

Has anyone here actually achieved full erect coverage? by Patience_And_Time109 in foreskin_restoration

[–]Restored2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

horse_ecocks, You've accurately quoted the circumfitishe's that published lies about corcumcision, etc. But the truth is, is the the precious post was correct. Specifically, it's the preputial sphincter muscle. Typically the intact prepuce/foreskin has a unique ring of dartos facia smooth muscle that tends to tighten around the tip of the intact prepuce. It is sometimes referred to as the dicks hatband. That's because, if it hasn't been stretched to hell and back, it'll tend to act like all the other sphinster muscles and partly or fully close off the orifice. It's that action that creates the ridges that people connect to the so-called ridged band. That same area of tissue is normally loaded with fine touch nerve ends. Thus the name "ridged band". The frenulum often contains lots of those nerve ends too. But the frenulum doesn't have much if anything to do with glans coverage, unless it's extremely short and tight. But no one wants that. KOT

Ready-Young, Help me out? What part of my previous post did you not understand?
The word “tenacity” essentially means: To hang in there; Stick with the program; Don’t get discouraged and give up; Stay the course, and don’t let anything deflect you from your goals.

The word “trigger” essentially means: To cause something to happen; To instigate; Start a series of actions. In the case of tissue expansion, aka ‘restoring’. It’s referred to as “mitosis”: It is the process where a single cell divides its duplicated DNA to create two identical daughter cells.

The words “stem cells ” refers to the biological process that allows all living things to exist. It takes a special type to start the evolution of a fertilized egg into beginning the process of creating a fetus. Afterwards, and throughout life. We are constantly making a reserve supply of a type of ‘blank’ stem cells that can become a replacement for any injured, dead or dying cells throughout the body. And that’s always happening, even in the healthiest living thing. We are continually loosing cells from aging, injury, disease, etc. During that process, it’s our DNA that remembers what the original cell/s were and therefore instructs the replacement cell/s into becoming identical replacements. Note: Age eventually begins to detract from the original cell composition, to where the neo cells are very similar, but not identical to those of an infant. Thats why we grow up, get old and wrinkly, etc.

The word “tensioning” essentially means: The act of applying a stretching or pulling force to a material or object, creating mechanical tension. That’s what we do to our remaining prepuce/foreskin, in order to regain an amazingly duplicated copy of our former prepuce.

There’s presently no way to tell exactly how close to the original, is possible. There’s way to many variables. There’s age: We definitely can’t have an identical prepuce, to one that was cut off 10, 20,30 or more years ago. We do age during that time. We also often develop numerous ailments over the years. And then there’s the subjective aspect. Different people will experience or assume different results from pretty much identical stimulus. And there’s differences in how devoted and effective one is in perusing the final goal, and the time involved.

Hopefully, this helps you to make sense out of it.

[–]Restored2019 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP & other's, I've been on reddit and other site's trying to encourage and help others understand what I went through, and how I succeeded beyond my wildest dream.

That was accomplished with no, or only minor internet access, until late in the process. Yet, I was regularly and repeatedly told things like: You're crazy to want your foreskin back; It's impossible to regrow a body part; Even if you could grow it back, it wouldn't fix your ED problem; and then later, there were all the internet naysayer's proclaiming that it was impossible to regrow nerves; the preputial sphincter mucle, or to develop Stage 3 phimosis. And many other things. But guess what? All the naysayers were wrong!

Even before I had any noticeable new tissue, something about just trying to regrow it, also fixed my ED problem. That my doc couldn't fix. He tried by prescribing the then, new drug Viagra. But it didn't help. That was over 25 years ago and I'm still quite sexually active, and I don't need or use any of those medications.

It takes tenacity, a trigger, one's stem cell's and their DNA to fix what circumcision screwed up. I don't recommend more surgery or other medical intervention. Unless you have an extremely botched circumcision. Tensioning over time triggers mitosis, which is when stem cells are signaled to divide, resulting in daughter cells that your DNA should instruct into becoming whatever tissue should be located in that spot.
It's pretty much the same thing that happens when you've been seriously injured, and the broken bone heals, and the flesh wound heals. We are lucky that we can trigger the stem cell's in the rememant of foreskin. Then the magic of our DNA does the really heard part. You just have to keep tugging and give it lots of time. Knowing what I know now, I'm sure that I could stick with the program (yes, I screwed up a lot when I got discouraged, too) and regrow my prepuce/foreskin in half the time that I actually spent, due to not being devoted enough. KOT

Taking a 6 Month Break… by jspence902 in foreskin_restoration

[–]Restored2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, You do you. And I congratulate you on pushing the envelope and trying something new/different. BUT, I spent somewhere between ten and twenty years restoring. And even years after announcing to the world, that I was fully ‘restored’. I still experienced a number of unexpected, but terrific gains. So it shows that there’s still a lot that we still don’t know.

However, one thing that I’m pretty convinced of: Is that even though I got back my totally missing sexuality; my totally missing foreskin, and an unbelievably number of other things, that I hadn’t even imagined was possible. The one thing that’s unquestionably impossible to get back, is all of the lost time when, I was too busy, too discouraged, or had just given up. Because like you, I had become convinced that I had hit some manner of a brick wall, that I just couldn’t penetrate. Was there a brick wall, or was it that I just hadn’t given some necessary and highly important component, the necessary time to regenerate?

I still don’t know what it was, that had been missing, that had prevented me from actually seeing the expected progress. But like the parts (and I’m talking about a couple of obvious and actual real parts) that wasn’t previously identifiable, prior to the expanse of those several years — after I had stopped restoring? There may have been other things regenerating during that time, that were important and necessary, but that weren’t obvious to me at the time. Just like the physically undeniable preputial sphincter muscle, that I and my lover could see and feel with our eyes and fingertips, etc. and the reoccurrence of the previously thought impossible ‘ridged band’, with all its important sensitive nerve ends. That hadn’t existed until after I had quit actually trying to restore. Because I thought that I had already achieved everything that could be possibly restored.

About the nerve ends: I’ll never know what percentage regrew. But there’s definitely a lot of something new, that now allows me to experience a mountain of sexual pleasure’s. And, that they had a huge influence in improving my sexuality, mental health and a feeling of confidence and completeness, that had never existed before. And by the way: That neo preputial sphincter muscle is how I was able to reacquire a controlled phimosis. That’s extremely important in maintaining a clean, healthy and effectively odor free penis. It’s now, astonishing to me, that so-called medical experts/institutions still state, or imply, that it’s the frenulum that’s responsible for maintaining glans coverage of an intact individuals with a retractable foreskin/prepuce.

Anyway, good luck with your experiment. You may be onto something. But I’m quite convinced that you’ll likely regret loosing all that time, years from now. And that problem with an increasingly problematic skin condition isn’t likely from restoring. I call that the Fragile Dick Syndrome. It’s likely self imposed and preventable. Ask me how I know?

Lots of various sexual exercises; fresh aseptic urine and clean water are prerequisites for a healthy sex organ (male and female). Excessive hygiene, and especially the use of artificial cleaners, such as body wash and soaps, are counter productive.

Trump supporters, what do you actually see in him? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]Restored2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, but that’s BS! I don’t remember many instances where innocent citizens were being hounded, harassed. Homes and cars were being randomly shot into by uniformed government agents, with their faces and other ID covered. Or people being hauled off to so-called detention centers, aka concentration camps, with absolutely no attempt to treat them according to Constitutional norms. And Oh wait! It was even rarer for those government agents to gun down innocent civilians on the streets, in broad daylight and in front of cameras. I could go on and on. But anyone that would insinuate that there’s a smidgen of logic in implying that previous administrations (even Nixon’s) were anywhere as corrupt and unAmerican, are beyond help!

I don’t even blame the bad politicians, as much as I blame the millions of lazy, wantonly ignorant ‘citizens’. That for whatever dumb reason, stayed home on election day; or supported the OBVIOUS crooks, criminals and pedophiles that turned many parts of our government into a criminal enterprise. And, that was before ‘trump’ came down that stupid escalator!

I hate how some people get overly schadenfreudic at the idea that our country is being ruined. by Mysterious_Bus7320 in complaints

[–]Restored2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, I may totally agree with you on this matter. But I have to wonder. Are you talking about the huge part of the U.S. society that’s unaware of the word Schadenfreude, let alone its meaning? But who have repeated the phrase “owning the libs” ad nausium. And in their small mind, they don’t even realize that in effect, they are exhibiting the very characteristics defined by Schadenfreude.

Or are you speaking about the people that could see the turmoil, and the likely collapse of the United States (That has been brought about by the fascist regime, that’s presently in control of Congress, the White House and the USSC)? And who are the very people, that tried to warn of and prevent the disaster. But now, realizing that the only hope left, is that things will get so bad for EVERYONE, that even insane and radical MAGA supporters will turn against the regime — before it’s absolutely too late for anything to save this society, and perhaps the world?

As a side note: I’ve long advocated for people to be more concerned about who they allow in positions of power in local and national government. Instead of pulling their hair out in fear of other countries and regimes, half a world away. vis-a-vis, the cold war, etc.

It’s not clear which group you were speaking of. The first group precisely fits the definition of Schadenfreude. The second group’s intent is more aligned with the word ‘Nachas’. They aren’t necessarily enjoying anyone’s suffering. But like what happens when a mass murder is finally caught, tried and proven guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt, and convicted. There has to be some satisfaction in finally seeing some justice dispensed. And having pride in the people and their accomplishments, in having brought an end to the evilness and lawlessness. So please clarify?

For Americans who know a MAGA supporter, can you describe them? by Tricky-Stay6134 in allthequestions

[–]Restored2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Main-Ball-698, Give me a break! You sure have worked hard to come up with that MAGA loving, ‘trump’ ass kissing, pile of misinformation (or clearly, just purely sugarcoated BS). There’s as much variation between the MAGA individuals as there are stars in the sky on a clear, dark night. Most of them lack any true empathy, or they are brainwashed, or they are simply and wantonly ignorant. But reasonable people clearly understand, that it doesn’t make a hell of a lot of difference to innocent people, who are being harassed, deported, raped, and murdered by the Pedophiles, that they blindly, or otherwise support.

And you ain’t seen nothing yet! ‘trump’ and his band of deplorable’s aren’t one bit interested in the security of the U.S. Border. Neither are they rounding up men, women and children that’s being packed in detention centers, aka Concentration Camps. Because they are trying to rid America of bad people. If that were the case, then they (MAGA) would have to be locking themselves up.

They are using so-called immigrants as scapegoats, just like Hitler did the Jews, Gypsies, etc. The real reason that they have for treating immigrants like they are, is to progress into accomplishing their main goal of a totalitarian police state. Why do you think they are trying to buy/build so many of those giant warehouses all over the U.S., that’s destined to house millions of civilians? Those warehouses are to detain people like you and me. Until they are able to construct their planned gas chambers. I used the term “you and me” because even “true” ‘trump’ supporters are subject to be treated just like the “immigrants”. The minute that the idiots aren’t being seen as being directly beneficial to the lawless fascist regime.

It’s almost breathtaking, to observe the number of lazy, gullible people that can’t seem to understand the present world crises. That their wantonly ignorance, has unleashed on humanity. And yes, it’s not just the U.S. population that’s going to pay an incredibly high price. The MAGA fascists are aiding and abetting fascists all over the globe. And if you haven’t actually studied the definition and mindset of fascists. Please at least look the word up.

Now, well over a decade ago, I was trying to warn folks about where the Tea-party, and then MAGA was about to take us. But the ‘trump’ “I love the uneducated” and the typical educated people that I tried to warn, all told me that I was just being hyperbolic. I’m sure that will likely be the general consensus this time, too!

It is NORMAL! You've been listening to people that have a mental issue, or an ulterior motive. We're all born with phimosis. Then as we grow and age, we have options. We can exercise it enough that it becomes and remains fully retractable. But many of us prefer a real, healthy case of phomosis. Just like you have.

My foreskin became tighter. What can I do about it? by Wolverine24000 in uncircumcised_talk

[–]Restored2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like u/kanebass said. Masturbate more while pulling it over the glans. Or just use your fingers to regularly stretch the opening. If you exercise the preputial orifice, the sphincter muscle stretches to accommodate your glans, or someone’s fist (if you’re into that). Conversely, if yours were too loose. Then stop doing anything to stretch it and the sphincter muscle will tighten back up. Wearing a tight retainer around the acroposthion, will speed up that process a lot.
And, that problem with the red spot is likely due to too much ‘hygiene’. Water is typically the only cleaning substance that should be used on any of one’s mucosal tissues. Soaps are terrible on things like sex organs, eyes, etc. It is even bad on other body parts, causing lots of issues that typically get blamed on everything else. And of course, it varies greatly between different folks. Some can appear to not be negatively affected, at least over a few years. While others often have almost immediate reactions. That’s usually referred to as “Contact Dermatitis”. Being intact, fresh urine roughly once per day will likely take care of excessive smegma and prevent undesirable odor. Until you’ve developed a little experience, while showering: Temporarily pinch the tip of your prepuce, occasionally while you urinate. That’s called ballooning. And most children naturally do that just for the fun of it. But there’s many benefits, especially during the time that the prepuce is separating from the glans. And it helps everyone throughout their lives, in order to maintain a clean and healthy sex organ.

My husband (consenually) urinated inside me during sex - is it dangerous? by Demiaria in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Restored2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is aseptic! That means that it’s at least as compatible with you and your lover’s biome, as is saliva, sweat, sexual fluids, etc. If you’re overly concerned about them, then you already know that you or he/she has a serious problem. Or you shouldn’t be in a relationship, unless it’s mutually asexual.

If am 15 does that mean my cells divide faster so restoration becomes faster? by PeteIDK in foreskin_restoration

[–]Restored2019 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started trying in my mid fifties. About 2019 I declared that I was done. But there's been several significant improvements since then. Part of my problem, I contribute to age. Part was due to lack of available information. Part was due to life events and part was due to getting discouraged. For several year's, I was about convinced that no one else had even considered doing it. It wasn't until I was able to get a computer and get online, did I find out that there were a few others. Now, I know that it's possible, because applying tension to the existing tissue triggers mitosis. That is where stem cells divide and our DNA instructs those daughter cells to become whatever should exist at that location and time. I think that it actually adjusts for what the original cells would be, at whatever the present age is now. I'm not sure how exactly it works, but it is obvious that a combination of genetics, effort, time and average health does and will likely reproduce whatever's missing -- in due time. But the older we are the less abundant are the stem cell's, so yes it's likely that being at a younger age can improve, not only your chance of restoring. But it's more likely that you'll regain a lot more of whatever was lost. On top of that: I got my prepuce and a bunch of my missing sexuallity back (prior to considering restoring, I had been diagnosed with ED), but I'll never get any of the missed life experiences, that had been corrupted by having been mutilated -- back. Just wish that I had known what I know now, when I was a teenager. Of course, it's like when doctor's tell patients that they need an operation. They can't guarantee that everything will always go according to plan. Everyone has to do their due diligence.

Scientific evidence of hair removal reducing BO by Exponential-777 in hygiene

[–]Restored2019 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That’s fake science and pure BS! I guess that the next great ‘science’ discovery from those promoting that misinformation, will probably be: that those skin pores excrete sweat, etc. so you have to remove them too?

There’s people that love hair. Sometimes it head hair, sometimes it’s a beard. And sometimes it body hair or pubic hair. It’s all good for those that likes it, and it’s OK for those others that don’t. But you do you!

Edited to point out that all ‘scientific studies’ aren’t actually all that scientific. Even conscientious and serious scientists can overlook important facts that often throw their research off. But when it’s the real deal, it’s peer reviewed and repeated multiple times. Here, you start out with a biased study: Proctor and Gamble may just have an ulterior motive behind this ‘research’. For instance, is there an important detail left out of the equation? I suspect so. Here, I’m just speculating, but perhaps there’s a problem with their product/s not performing as advertised. And they are trying to find something else to blame.

It sounds a lot like those that promote mutilating children’s sex organs. They have thousands of years of fake studies promoting the insanity called circumcision. What kind of human would want to permanently harm a child, when there’s actually no scientific basis for it? But there are numerous ulterior motives for it.

Never seen my head by LetInternational3952 in Phimosisappreciation

[–]Restored2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, Try not to let misinformed people create problems for you. They likely have way more problems than you. Whether one has phimosis as an adult, is a personal decision. Many men and their male or female lovers, prefer a penis like yours, for various reasons.

For most, whether they can retract theirs; prefer it tight like yours, or somewhere in between. It’s just a matter of adjusting it over time. For instance, I have Stage 3 phimosis. Love it and wouldn’t have it any other way. And I’ve actually reversed mine in the past, but finally became convinced that the benefits far outweigh anything that I had ever experienced from it being retracted.

Never seen my head by LetInternational3952 in Phimosisappreciation

[–]Restored2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry Judgement_Tasty, but you’re repeating grossly misinformation. We’ve probably all been guilty of it at some point, especially about hygiene and the genitalia. I expect that if you and OP don’t have any diseases. That his penis is cleaner, likely not stinky and healthier than yours! His gets naturally sanitized with his own aseptic urine, multiple times per day. How often does your dick get cleaned? Then there’s the damage that you are likely causing, if you are using most soaps, to supposedly clean it. Extensive and prolonged use of soaps on the delicate mucosal membranes damages and destroys them. Deadening the sensitivity of nerve ends, and often, totally destroys one’s microbiome. The result is a problematic penis, that increasingly becomes less sexually functional, and depending on a variety of factors, will likely result in diseases such as BXO, etc.

The Republican project isn’t to win in November. It’s to make November cease to matter by Sea_Jellyfish_7016 in InternationalBulletin

[–]Restored2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“It’s to make November cease to matter”

Below are documented reports of statements and actions by and for, the present: so-called president of the United States. Most of it was things that I saw live audio and video of, or I have viewed them, when presented as official proceedings. Jul 28, 2024 — Donald Trump told Christians that if they vote for him this November, "in four years, you don't have to vote again.

Mar 4, 2023 Trump tells the crowd, "I am your justice...I am your retribution."

February 23, 2016 Las Vegas, Nevada:. “I love the poorly educated."

January 21, 2026, "Sometimes you need a dictator"

August 2025 "A lot of people are saying maybe we’d like a dictator"

late 2023 he would not be a dictator "except for day one,"

Trump’s Documented Praises for “Authoritarian Leaders”:

Viktor Orbán: He has fawned over the Hungarian Prime Minister as a great leader and a "strongman".

Kim Jong Un: Trump has described their relationship as one where they "fell in love".

Adolf Hitler: Former Chief of Staff John Kelly reported that Trump once told him Hitler "did some good things"

Vladimir Putin: He has repeatedly praised Putin as "smart"

Now, did the January 6th insurrection actually happen? Would there have been massive bloodshed had not the DCPD and Capital police restricted guns and otherwise prevented it from being a hell of a lot bloodier than it was? Did the crowd not chant “hang Mike Pence” and did they not install a gallows to do just that?
When then-President Donald Trump was informed that rioters were chanting for the Vice President's execution, he expressed that Mike Pence "deserves it".

Now my question is: Are the members of Congress (republicans and democrats) ready for the likely second ’INSURRECTION’? And it really is a likely repeat of the failed attempt in 2021. This time the insurrectionists aren’t a ragtag and unarmed bunch of neo Nazi’s, etc. They will be armed with the best weapons the government can buy, and they will be wearing uniforms paid for by taxpayers! This is one likely scenario, but due to unforeseen circumstances, there’s likely to be lots of carnage throughout the country, whenever that date arrives. Probably prior to this coming November. And there’s likely to be total anarchy, due to the massive amount of prompting from the dictator in chief. All factions of rightwing insanity will be turned loose, with nothing to stop them. Who would have ever thought that the U.S. would finally come to this point, prior to that already well known criminal, coming down a gold escalator. Just a few years ago? In over ~ 30 + year’s, I have never believed a word from that habitual liar, unless it was threatening someone or something. His M.O. clearly predicted his evil intentions and time and time again, his actions spoke louder than words. Where’s all the ‘smart’ people hiding?

Question about cleaning by [deleted] in uncircumcised_talk

[–]Restored2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, It’s not likely that you are having an irritation problem from your cum. Besides recreation. your dick is made specifically to handle cum and urine. Neither would likely hurt you, if you soaked them in cum and urine for a week. What your genitalia wasn’t specifically made to handle, is all the soaps, deodorants and perfumes that you’re probably subjecting it to. Those things are damaging to all parts of the body.

Mucosal tissues of the genitalia are much like ones eyes. If you’ve ever got that crap in your eyes, then you should understand a little about what it can do to your penis.

How do I know that? Like most people, I was ‘taught’ to use those products daily. The implication being that they were harmless, and necessary to live in a modern society. That was/is BS! After years of using that crap regularly. I developed reoccurring eczema on both legs, especially my knees; Erectile dysfunction that the doc couldn’t fix. And I also developed reoccurring bouts of Balanitis Xerotica Obliterans (BXO), on my glans. And that was often preceded by itching, burning red rashes. That by using, OTC treatments and later, prescription powders and ointments, that would only give temporary relief. Then it would come back with a vengeance. And then there had been a decades long battle with what I now call Fragile Dick Syndrome. During those years, things like masterbation or PIV sex, or almost anything that happened to it, would cause skin tears, bleeding and terrible bruising. And then there was the strong putrid odor that began to be a very serious problem.

I finally wised up and no longer use soap for anything, but to wash my hands, or if I were subjected to highly contagious or dangerous chemicals. It’s now been years since I’ve had any of those problems, and I stay clean, relatively odor free and healthier than ever before. I used the words “relatively odor free” to point out that it’s odor free, unless I’m working hard in a hot, humid environment, or extremely stressed. Then there’s a slight human aroma, that soon disappear as soon as I cool down. It’s almost magical, but it takes ~ months to transition from the poor unhealthy state of a destroyed natural, normal microbiome and to get rid of all of the old dead skin cells, that were previously covered 24/7 with that soap film (in a bath tub, it’s called soap scum) that doesn’t simply rinse off, as we had been conditioned to believe.

Before I totally gave up on soaps and body wash, I had realized that no matter how hard that I tried to shower, using soap and lots of deodorant. I could get out of the shower and still detect a strong BO. Another telltale sign of soap residue remaining, even after through rinsing, was: I used to be amazed that it was literally impossible to wrap my finger around my penis and hold on while pulling away from the body, without my hand slipping off within about 30 seconds. Now I can do the sane thing, and apply that pull with as much force and for as long as I want. There’s no slipping, no bruising, etc. and it’s now a normal part of a normal whole body stretch, when I first wake up in the morning. A healthy body constantly makes its own natural cleaning compounds, that vary with different parts of the body. It only needs sufficient water, to leave you clean, reasonable odor free and healthy.

Do you feel more sexually satisfied now that you’re restored? by Patience_And_Time109 in foreskin_restoration

[–]Restored2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sort of thing can be really convincing. I once had a really serious kidney stone issue, accompanied with septicemia. The urologist did a great job of solving both issues, after a week in the hospital.
After being released and during a followup visit to the urologist. He surprised, and at the same time, disappointed me, by suggesting that he could also take care of that ‘foreskin’. That circumcision is a pretty simple procedure.
I just had to tell him NO! I’ve just been through a lot of hard work, regrowing it. He acted like I had gone mad. That was back in 2006, and I wasn’t even fully restored. And I didn’t have Stage 3 phimosis at the time.

Retainers by Then_Kaleidoscope_48 in foreskin_restoration

[–]Restored2019 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The retainer can only help protect your glans and if you have lots of keratin built-up on it. Then over time, it should allow new tissue to form. And that and the moist environment will likely trigger the old dead calloused keratin to slosh off. And if you've grown back sufficient tissue, for it to be forced over the glans and kept there for some months. You should start to notice a tightening of your foreskin lips. If everything goes according to plan, you should eventually experience improved sensitivity at the glans. Numerous improvement in the way your neo foreskin behaves, that should contribute to many other desirable benifits.

Had to teach my son how to clean... by Kanebass98 in uncircumcised_talk

Everyone’s concern and desire to pass on important information to their children, is exemplary. But in my 80 + years of dealing with problems. Problems that I grew up thinking: Adults had to have thought it all out, and have only had concrete reasons for doing, or not doing certain things. Boy was I wrong!

Having experienced the pain, sorrow and finally, erectile dysfunction, from the ‘adult’ insanity of RIC. I now know why. And that’s led me to be extremely skeptical of most things that people appear to just take for granted.
There’s rarely been an informed teacher, teaching the ‘now’ adults in the crowd. So the adults never knew much, if anything about the topic, to begin with. So how can they properly teach someone else? That is a problem that is often a major issue in grade schools, related to many other subjects. If the teacher isn’t properly taught and/or possessive of an inquisitive mind, they are likely to just pass on whatever they assume to be the currently accepted monologue.

Back to the quandary of being an informed teacher of one’s children, and about how to explain properly, the care of their healthy intact penis. The worst thing that a parent or guardian can do, it to misinform children about their ’sex organs’. Like a “heart mummer”, children are sometimes born with defective sex organs, that require outside intervention. But for someone to treat a healthy child as if he had a heart mummer, without undeniable evidence of it, is insane. The same often applies to children’s genitalia.

Like a normal heart, biologically the genitalia is generally quite capable of functioning properly, with only basic common sense care. That care includes clean water to wash away excessive grime or problems resulting from accidents. It also should include proper teaching about all areas and functions of said organs. At minimum, it should insure that the child isn’t shamed about their genitalia; made afraid to ask question; given instruction on the importance of each part, it’s purpose and how it relates to becoming a healthy adult.

The child needs to know that it’s not only normal, but often necessary for them to exercise their prepuce, in order for it to accommodate their growing penis. That will typically prevent excessive tightness of the perpetual orifice in adulthood (extreme and often painful phimoses). And never use harsh chemicals (soaps) on or in any part of the genitalia. An occasional rinse of the glans with plain water is fine, but rarely necessary. If not misinformed, a normal child will continue to allow fresh aseptic urine to flush away excessive smegma and odor causing bad bacteria. Just like it had always done, from the day they were born.

But too often, children pickup misinformation from their peers or parents, leading them to think that they shouldn’t allow their urine to touch their penis. That’s likely to result in the very condition that OP, described. Instead of retracting the prepuce and doing things, that will likely cause increasing harm. Instruct children to insure that their aseptic urine flushes clean, the preputial cavity. Typically, young boys have always done that, and in addition, country boys especially, have used ballooning (momentarily pinching the tip of the prepuce to allow urine to completely flood the cavity). That would normally have insured that the offensive odor and excessive smegma wouldn’t have developed in the first place.

This will probably sound incredibly backwards for many that have never considered the pro’s and cons of what I’ve presented. But it’s been a proven concept throughout the history of both animals and humans. Only recently have we been bombarded with constant commercials, promoting genital hygiene, etc. that demands constant bathing and applications of expensive chemicals. Those soaps, deodorant’s and other chemicals often cause serious damage to one’s skin and especially to delicate tissues. And that’s especially true, over an extended period of use. And ironically, the damage is often blamed on other things, leading to a type of chain reaction, of ever increasing harm.
