Its been awhile

And I still never got round to posting those pictures I promised. If you look at the last photo I posted, though, things improved slightly from that, and then I got slack again.

Right now, I'm having a slight recurrence, which is what made me think of my blog again.

There is *definately* a link between having prolonged moisture under the foreskin from seminal fluid and this white ring (well, this is still based on a sample size of one - me, so take it for what its worth)

I haven't got back into using the manuka honey yet ... but I've got back into the routine of hair-drying my penis after washing, and keeping the foreskin retracted as much as possible (here's a hint - cut your pubic hair short), as well as cutting down on the porn (ok, I admit it! I bet this is why a lot of cases are confusing for doctors - they aren't getting all the information)
But yeah, looking at porn in my office causes me to leak pre-cum, and it just sits there all day until I shower after work. Not very professional, I know - but it *does* help me cope with the stress for some reason. But that's a story for my psychologist, not the penis-doctor!

So I go through periods in my life when I'm looking at porn and my penis is getting wet and staying like that for hours and hours, and on a regular basis - like almost every day! During these times is when I notice the "phimosis" getting worse.

Hopefully, my current regimen (I will get back onto the manuka honey soon) will improve things again (my foreskin still isn't nearly as tight as it was when it was at it's worst back in 2008) and then I will hopefully remember about my blog and post those photos I promised.

For all those who read this blog, please remember - this is just my experience - you really must see a doctor. This blog isn't medical advice - its just a little bit of my life story.
