Is The Tightness In Foreskin And Pain Due To Adhesion?

Hello Doc, i am asking continuously, I have a problem of tight foreskin by which I have started developing pain when my boxer touches my penis. I showed it to urologist, he said it is penis sensitivity. But I want to ask is that what is a difference between sensitivity and pain? I have no problem in urine. Just while adjusting boxer, wearing jeans, it hurts. Is it cancer? Or is it serious? If not, what are the remedies? Please suggest Answer I received: Hello When you feel electric like sensation we call it as sensitivity .While pain is a defense feature and if it hurts all the time. When you wear jeans etc may be a pain or sensitivity. As far as concerned about tight foreskin may be a case of paraphimosis i.e. don t retract skin of penis so that glans of penis don t expose.So consult a surgeon and get hsi opinion. My question: I dont have problem in pulling foreskin up.I have pulling foreskin down. It is pain as you described and not sensitivity. There is nothing like current feeling in there. When penis is being pushed against the boxer, it hurts. so boxer and penis are 90 degrees to each other when it hurts. I have read about adhesion. Am i facing this issue? If yes, is it serious? Is it cancerous? I am very much scared, please help me come out of this.

Hello
I really appreciate your concern
Of course you need to be concerned, its severity and probability of cancer can not ascertained based on your short history,

Looking at present condition you might have injured your foreskin during the sex or masturbation or may get infected if it was healthy previously.

In my opinion you should keep it clean and apply any antiseptic ointment
Application of hot packs will help in healing

If it doesn't improve or gets worsen than you must see your doctor for physical check up and a course of antibiotics if need be.

Hope this answers your question

Best wishes
