'''Paraphimosis''' is a medical condition where the [[foreskin]] becomes trapped behind the [[glans penis]], and cannot be pulled back to its normal flaccid position covering the glans penis. If the condition persists for several hours or there is any sign of a lack of blood flow, paraphimosis should be treated as a [[medical emergency]], as it can result in [[gangrene]] or other serious complications.
==[[Paraphimosis differential diagnosis|Differentiating Paraphimosis from other Diseases]]==


Paraphimosis can often be reduced by manipulation. This involves compression of the glans, then movement of the foreskin to its normal position, perhaps with the aid of a lubricant. If this fails, the foreskin may need to be cut (dorsal slit procedure) or removed by [[circumcision]]. An alternate method, the Dundee technique, entails placing multiple punctures in the swollen foreskin with a fine needle, and then expressing the edema fluid by manual pressure.
==[[Paraphimosis epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and Demographics]]==


Prevention of recurrence is through education of the patient and his care givers on the need to pull back the foreskin over the glans after it has been retracted (for example, when cleaning the [[glans penis|glans]] or passing a [[Foley catheter]]), or through elective [[circumcision]] or [[preputioplasty]].
