Doctor explains Paraphimosis - aka swollen foreskin that you can't pull back...

Doctor O'Donovan explains Paraphimosis, including definition, causes, complications and management (including the three main manual technqiues).

Paraphimosis is a condition that only affects uncircumcised males. It develops when the foreskin can no longer be pulled forward over the tip of the penis. This causes the foreskin to become swollen and stuck, which may slow or stop the flow of blood to the tip of the penis. The condition can lead to serious complications if it isn’t treated. Treatment involves reduction of the foreskin.

Paraphimosis most often occurs when a healthcare provider handles the foreskin improperly. They may not return the foreskin back to its normal position after a physical exam or medical procedure.

This video will be of interest to medical professionals (doctors, nurses etc.), health care students (medical and nursing students), those preparing for exams - (medical school finals, GP AKT, USMLE,) and the general public interested in health education. It is designed with the non-specialist in mind.
