Paraphimosis – Stork Hospital, Hyderabad
Emergency Treatment for a Trapped Foreskin
Urgent urological intervention to resolve foreskin entrapment, restore circulation, and protect penile health with expert precision.
Paraphimosis occurs when the foreskin is pulled back behind the head (glans) of the penis and becomes stuck, making it impossible to return to its normal position. This can cause swelling, severe discomfort, and restricted blood circulation to the glans, which may lead to serious complications if not treated quickly. At Stork Multispecialty Hospital, Hyderabad, paraphimosis is treated as an urgent urological emergency. Our team of expert urologists uses gentle yet effective techniques to relieve swelling, restore the foreskin, and protect long-term penile health.
