A foreskin is the piece of skin which covers the end of the penis. If you have undergone a circumcision then you will no longer have one. If you have a tight foreskin that is difficult to pull back you may be very embarrassed and concerned as well as feeling a degree of pain. If you suffer from any tight foreskin problems than you will be glad to know that there is treatment available to you.
The medical term for a tight foreskin is phimosis. If you believe that you have phimosis then you will not be able to wash under the foreskin and so there will then be a build up of a white substance termed smegma. When your penis is erect it can be very sore.
There are men that have had a tight foreskin their whole lives whereas others may develop phimosis at a later time in life due to an infection.
If the foreskin is causing you discomfort when you try to pull it back then you should not force it as you may make the condition worse; though stretching it daily may help.
The most common treatment is an operation and usually this means circumcision. A surgeon will separate the foreskin from the penis head and then cut it away and stitches up the incision. At first the penis head will be very sensitive as it will not be use to being exposed, but over a couple of weeks this should subside. It may help to wear loose boxer shorts instead of tight briefs for some time.
Another choice is an operation called preputioplasty. This is not as drastic as a circumcision as the foreskin is sliced rather than removed. The incision is then cross stitched to give a wider more flexible foreskin. It will leave a natural looking penis.
