We've had a lot of nay-sayers and hecklers, but if you'll notice, they're mostly gone since everyone who has tried stretching has come back with raves about how it works. I've personally been coaching and using stretching techniques since about 1985, so I have walked and talked the walk enough to know the results will be there when the effort is applied. I've done all the stupid things myself, such as overstretching and causing little tears, having to wait till things healed up in order to proceed, so I can speak with total confidence about what to expect. I've also used devices of all kinds to to create constant tension on the skin, thus knowing firsthand that they are safe and effective. You'll be able to do the same once you have achieved your goal.
>I was once one of those nay-sayers. Well not so much that, I thought my problem was more serious than that and there's no way scretching would work.
>I will definitely post something later on describing what my exact situtation was in hopes of helping some others out there.
>>Da nada senor. Stick around and let us know about your progress. It can be a big inspiration to others in the same boat, especially with all the naysayers who claim stretching doesn't work.
>>>thank you for your DETAILED response.
>>>I assumed this from the start, but I would rather be safe than sorry. Especially since i've read paraphimosis can be quiet a serious matter.
>>>>Frank, you did get the right answer the first time, and from a physician, not a smartass. However, it looks as if you want more detail as to why this won't be a problem unless you're deadass drunk.
>>>>In the event that the skin goes behind the sulcus and gets stuck, you simply pull it back over. Your already halfway there, so the likelihood of having a more severe problem is slim to none. The usual treatment used on little kids who panic under these circumstances is to pinch the glans and pull the skin over it.
>>>>Any more questions?
>>>>>Once again I shall post my question again in hopes of getting a proper response. If you have any smartass or 'interesting' comments please refrain, build up your ego elsewhere.
>>>>>I've been sretching for the past three weeks now i'm gettting to the point where I can retract my foreskin completely while erect. Orginally when I started I couldn't even get it half way over the glans while flacid.
>>>>>My question is do I have to worry about paraphimosis since i'm getting to the point where I can retract it fully but it's still rather tight?
