Hello.

I will just share my experience. I had quite similar situation and wanted to keep as much foreskin as possible. Thus my choice was to have a partial circumcision. When the surgery was finished l looked at the result and it looked quite good. However, after few days the incision line became very tight. Thus after quite uncomfortable recovery I went for a revision and full circumcision. Now I am recovering (week 2). Indeed, it will take time to get used to the new appearance, flaccid size (looks smaller), sensitivity but I see positive progress, I am getting used to it. At least now my glans is fully exposed and free of constant pressure.

I am not a specialist, however wanted to share my own experience with you that may be of help in making decision.

Good luck! Take good care of your valuable tool!

Hi, sorry it looks very tight and uncomfortable Man. it is possible to have a partial circumcision but I'm not sure if it gives the best outcome. A Loose circumcision probably would be better with your frenulum retained. you could try stretching but again I'm not sure if this will work for you, you could give it a try and see. phimostretch.com/blogs/news...

ultimately I think you probably will end up having a circumcision.

Mine was done loose without removing the frenulum with great results.

Talk to your GP. They'll probably recommend a circumcision. Get it done and you'll be very happy.

Never go for partial circumcision. Full circumcision is highly recommended.

This I am telling you after my own experience.

Go for high type.

Horrible! I’m sorry. Go to the doctor. They may be able to give you a prescription for a steroid cream that could help with the tightness. Don’t force it back as that will cause cuts that form scar tissue and

I recommend that you stretch it out. Follow the links Bucky posted.

I agree with Bucky, I had similar tight foreskin and practiced stretching exercises until foreskin loosened.

Not what you're looking for?
