Brief Answer:
Regarding phimosis

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.

Difficulty in pulling back foreskin is called phimosis. Is this of recent onset? or has it been like this always?

Hope to assist you further with your query.

Brief Answer:
Regarding phimosis

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Perhaps you have a candida or yeast infection which can sometimes lead to difficulty in retracting prepare. I suggest you to take an oral antifungal e.g Fluconazole 15omg tablet once a day for 3 days. In addition I suggest you to apply a topical antifungal cream e.g clotrimazole 1% cream, twice daily for a week.
Another possibility is that of balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO) but it requires circumcision as a definite treatment.
Take care
