Can't pull down foreskin

[Unknownnnn]

Hi, I got an issue which I think is phimosis but I'm not sure as I can't pull down my foreskin completely when erect but I can when it is flaccid, I always wash properly. What could it be?

If it is relatively new it could be an infection causing you to be unable to retract the foreskin completely behind the head . If it was present from before , it might be a short frenulum or phimosis where essentially in your condition , in flaccid state everything is fine but in erect state the foreskin and/or the frenulum cannot accomodate for the glans size. The next step for you in my opinion would be to meet a doc ! All the best !

Has it always been that way, or is this a recent thing?

It's always been like this

Bro., I've the same issue. I can pull the foreskin all the way back when it's normal but when erect, I can pull it just past the glands, the foreskin becomes so tight, it couldn't go further back or come normal. I've been circumsed, it's 6th week. To be honest, I'm not satisfied with it. There is lot of swelling separated by stitches marks (looks like bubbles). My doctor says be patient, give it some time but I'm really worried. Any suggestions?? Also, how's yours now??
