Foreskin problems

7 Replies

Hey guys I'm 20 years and I have never been able to stretch back my foreskin. Everytime I try to do so I get a feeling that I might cause injury to my penis. I feel ashamed of having to go to the doctor and getting circumcised. Any help would be very appreciated. Thank You

I believe some people do suffer from tight foreskin..it probably is best to see a doctor.

There is a online service via push doctor, it's an app. It does cost £20 but at less of a embarrassing situation.

Most doctors have no respect for foreskins and just advise circumcision. Stretching will fix it.

You might just have to get over your embarrassment and see a doctor. Doctors are professionals, they have seen penises of all shapes and sizes, and with all kinds of problems. There really is no reason to feel embarrassed.

You can loosen it with daily stretching exercises. If you can get two fingers inside, pull them apart and hold as long as you can. Continue for five minutes, and do this four times per days. Don’t miss any days. It might take two months. If fingers won’t fit, use cotton swabs.

Hey, I'm 17 and I had the same problem, it's called phimosis. If you are able to see a little bit of your head or put finger inside, good for you, but I couldn't do that, so I went to the doctor and the only solution was circumcision, bacause in my case streching was unuseful. At first I was really depressed and nervous, but now I'm already circumcised for 2 weeks and it was the best decision I could make. There's nothing to worry about, trust me. If you want to know more about circumcision, you can write me.

Thanks guys for your insight. Much appreciated

I would advice not to go for circumcision..first try to do some stretching of your phimotic ring..rest the decision is yours.
