I don't know if it's "normal" but I was able to pull mine back at age 7 or 8

I had the same issue before. Although, I can pull the foreskin back that time. But now I am circumcised.

Same issue ? What made you choose to get circumcised ? Are you glad you did prefer it now ?

Actually I was suffering from balanitis and phimosis both. Thats why I got circumcised.

What age did you get it ? Had you always had some bother with phimosis ? Is balanitis when your glans gets red n itchy ?

I got circumcised at 31. Yes, you are correct about balanitis. I suffered a lot from phimosis. I found smegma frequently although i was serious about the hygiene. Foreskin got stucked under the head of the pennies.

I'd say completely normal. I'm the same and I've never had a problem retracting my foreskin flaccid or erect. Providing you can then there's no issue.

So on erection yours still covers the head ? How easily does it go back over and behind the head ? Could you yank it back hard without pain ?

Yes. I have quite a lot of foreskin and the skin of my shaft seems to expand naturally during an erection, so then it just looks like a larger version of flaccid. Ever since my earliest memories I've never had any issues with tightness, the foreskin has always retracted fully and very easily, flaccid or erect. The point of my reply, if I understood your question correctly, is that you don't have to have phimosis for the erect glans to stay covered. And no, I've never had any pain 'yanking it back hard'.

Not what you're looking for?
