General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

You are advised to see a urologist about your problem. He may first advise you some local steroid cream for application. In some cases, it may be effective. In other cases, where it is not effective, surgery is required and this operation is called circumcision.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Satnarain Bansal, General & Family Physician
