Hi,
So i just came across this site, and thought i'd see if there was any advice before i (reluctantly, as a typical man) have to go to a GP.
I have what i think is a tight foreskin which is causing me some problems:
One of the problems is when having sex (if not using lube) it can be painful as it doesn't retract naturally or fully.
The other problem is possibly a tight frenlum which is pulling the head down and creating some pain.
However, what i dont understand, is that when flacid, i can retract the foreskin completely as far back as i want and feel no pain. But when i'm erect, i can only retract it say to the bottom of the head and any further is quite painful (this wouldn't be a particular issue as i can still retract it) but the big problem, is that when retracting it when erect, it effects my erection and makes the penis go softer and more flaccid (like a semi) as you can imagine, this means ejaculating during sex is very difficult, and i believe the penis goes softer because of the discomfort of retracting the foreskin.
As a result, I only seem to be able to ejaculate when the head is covered by the foreskin so the penis is fully erect and specifically whilst masturbating.
I can't find any similar issue online, and the closes thing my issue appears to be related to is phismosis. But i've never seen any mention of the condition causing the penis to go more flaccid when the foreskin is pulled back?
I have a very sensitive head, and sometimes during sex it's uncomfortable, so a combination of these factors is frankly making my sex life an absolute misery (though because of the issue i can last in bed for a long time, but that is no concellation when the experience is barely pleasureable)
Does anybody have any advice what this can be related to and how it can be treated or should i run it past a GP?
Thanks
