Can I use betamethasone cream for phimosis? Most of the doctors prescribed this cream to cure phimosis naturally by applying to retract the skin.

Hello- Betamethasone is a steroid. It makes skin retractable one time during the use but makes it thicker and even tighter once you stop using it, so doctors recommend circumcision for Phimosis in allopathy. It is not a good option for you, as it is not a cure. Traditionally medicine offers conservative treatment of phimosis. It is worth noting that in recent years, medicine has made great progress in this field. So, if you looking for a permanent solution for your tight foreskin, yes it is possible with Ayurveda. Surgery (circumcision) can be avoided.
