I'm 18 and i have tight foreskin. I’m unable to retract my foreskin to expose the gland when erect but i can when i'm flaccid. Does anyone have some advice on what i could do and do i need to worry?

Well if it's tight and doesn't retract when erect , Stop forcing it back or you might end up with a tear or paraphimosis. In my opinion meeting a doc is key . He might suggest steroid creams which will aid your daily stretching and loosen your foreskin . Although most docs may jump to the idea of a circumcision so it's up to your discretion what you would like to try and what could work out for you . If it is really too tight , there is not much use trying the steroid creams and stretching and this can be adviced to you by only a doctor. Other avenues and the end resort of circ can also be adviced by the doc on inspection of the extent of your condition.

There's nothing to worry but I definitely would not try retracting the foreskin too much at least without the steroid creams only after a doc has prescribed it . Also the best judge for your condition which is very common is a doc ! Take care !

Here is the NHS advance very for tight foreskin. nhs.uk/conditions/phimosis/

I have the same problem! You should post a pic of soft and erect so some of the guys on here can help! Being 19 you could be able to manually stretch it! I’m 32 and there is too much scaring for me to stretch it now so I’m going for a circumcision
