&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Paraphimosis is a medical condition when the foreskin gets stuck behind the head of the penis (the corona) and causes a tight band of constricting tissue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Paraphimosis is a urological emergency. If you are suffering from paraphimosis, please see a doctor as soon as possible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;What are the causes of paraphimosis?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Paraphimosis only happens to uncircumcised males. Paraphimosis may occur due to several reasons, such as&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Having a penile piercing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Having an infection&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;During masturbation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Pulling back the foreskin too forcefully&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Having vigorous sexual activity&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Having a foreskin that is tighter than usual&lt;/span&gt; (&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/phimosis&quot;&gt;Phimosis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;What are the symptoms of paraphimosis?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;The main symptom of paraphimosis is the inability to retract the foreskin back to its normal position. As a result, this may cause swelling, pain, and discolouration of the penis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;What are the complications of paraphimosis?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Paraphimosis may lead to serious complications such as gangrene (tissue death) on the tip of the penis, infection, and damage to the tip of the penis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;What are the treatments for paraphimosis?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;The treatments for paraphimosis will vary depending on the severity of the condition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Generally, your doctor will reduce the swelling and retract the foreskin back to its usual position. The process can be painful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;How do I prevent paraphimosis?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Prevent leaving the foreskin behind the tip of the penis for an extended period.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Always retract your foreskin back to its original position after sexual intercourse, urination, or cleaning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;One needs to practice good hygiene, clean the tip of the foreskin to prevent infection regularly and&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/how-to-clean-your-penis-after-sex&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;clean your penis after sex&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
