Paraphimosis occurs when the foreskin is stuck behind the glans penis and cannot return to its original position. This can cause retracted foreskin swelling, intense pain, and penile circulation restriction. At Curis Life Multispecialty Clinic in Andheri West, our expert urologists offer immediate and compassionate care for this urological emergency.
What is Paraphimosis?
Paraphimosis is a condition where the retracted foreskin becomes trapped behind the head of the penis (glans), leading to swollen glans due to tight foreskin. This can block blood flow and requires urgent medical intervention to prevent penile ischemia (tissue damage due to lack of oxygen).
Symptoms of Paraphimosis
- Inability to pull the foreskin back over the glans
- Painful swollen penis
- Glans penis swelling and redness
- Bluish discoloration (restricted blood flow)
- Difficulty urinating
- Increasing penile pain over time
Causes of Paraphimosis in Adults
- Improper retraction during cleaning or catheterization
- Uncircumcised males with tight foreskin
- Sexual activity without foreskin repositioning
- Infections or inflammation
- Previous foreskin disorders or phimosis
