This site discusses phimosis in its specific forms of phimotic ring, frenulum breve, adhesions or skinbridges. During erection these conditions inhibit the relationship between foreskin and glans. This functionally restricts the erection, and thus has an effect on the sexuality. With our culture's attitudes on health care, it would be appropriate to encourage early prevention.

ESTIMATIONS on PHIMOSIS STATISTICS without REFERENCES In the Encyclopedia Judaica (3) under circumcision it says that "10% of boys eventually need it, because of non-retractability of the foreskin" . Boon ME, Susanti I, Tasche MJ, Kok LP, Human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated male and female genital carcinomas in a Hindu population. The male as vector and victim. Cancer 1989 Jul 15;64(2):559-65 Boon speculates without giving any references "In Bali, up to 50% of men over the age of 18 has some degree of Phimosis." Of interest: "In a Hindu population in a predominantly Muslim country not only is circumcision not practiced, but phimosis is often left untreated because of a prohibition to intervene with the male foreskin"... the study unfortunately doesn`t tell us any more on this theme.
