Hi,

As you have mentioned that you had injured your penis during childhood and a surgical procedure was done, it is possible that there is a scar formation in the region. The penis head and fore skin is a very sensitive structure. After putting the stitches, it has developed into scar tissue. This scar tissue is preventing the foreskin to roll down. The pain and discomfort is do to the scar tissue formation. For a small scar tissue, you can try manipulating it by using a lot of lubrication jelly during sex and masturbation and slowly trying to roll down the foreskin. If this does not happen then please do not do it forcibly.

Using too much force can cause further injury to the foreskin. If it does not roll down with lubricants then please consult the urologist for scar release surgery. This is a minor surgery and works for most patients. If scar tissue is difficult to repair then circumcision can be done depending on the findings after clinical examination.
