Detailed Answer:
Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician I appreciate your health concerns...
It is appropriate to send me picture of it so that I can better comment on it.
If the foreskin over the glans penis is free and XXXXXXX then you should not be worried about it much.
If foreskin is adherent and can't be retracted and there is swelling of glans then it need to treated. In that case you should go to ER.....
Meanwhile stay calm and use acetaminophen to relieve pain.
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask.
