General & Family Physician 's  Response
hello,
i can understand your concern.
it seems you are having phimosis where in there is difficulty in retracting the foreskin.
this wouldnt be a problem during masturbation, but while having intercourse this would lead to injury as the foreskin is required to retract during the act.
this can also lead to collection of smegma beneath it leading to infections.
the treatment for this condition is circumcission which is a minor day care procedure. the foreskin would be slightly resected by the surgeon.
i would advise you to consult a general surgeon or a urologist for undergoing circumcission.
hope i have answered your concern.
feel free to ask further questions.
thanks for choosing HCM
