Question about Foreskin Restoration....

[Yoshua]

Do you think that the steroid creme would help in the process of mitosis? Has anyone tried? Do you think this would quicken the results of restoration?


I know it is meant to make the skin more elastic. but would it help or hinder the process of restoration?


anyone know? anyone have theories?

An over-the-counter steriod cream may help, yes. I would advise against using a steroid application that was medically prescribed for a different purpose (if that is what is in your mind). Steroids need to be treated with respect! They can be effective in increasing the elasticity of a tight foreskin, so logic would suggest it's use when restoring, but I have not heard of anyone doing this and I hasten to add that I'm no expert!

It is certainly a novel idea.

I presume you were inspired by the usage of it as a remedy for phimosis?

[Yoshua]

yeah. if it makes it more elastic it makes me wonder if it would help in the process......


Or hinder it. Don't know. Just contemplating it at the moment.

Use an over-the-counter steroid cream and it will either work or do nothing.

It can't do any harm...

I could see the thought that it may hinder in restoration... like maybe if it is more elastic because of the cream, then less new skin will be formed.

I think it would not make a difference either way... and I am scared of long term hydrocortizone.

Yoshua--

I remember reading a while back about some articles regarding this on the message boards at the foreskin restoration chat pages. That would probably be a question better posed there anyhow...but I do remember there being positive things stated about a certain cream that had been shown clinically to aid tissue expansion.

Some people have also thought the same thing for heat as well .

I'd love to know the name of this.
