What Is The Remedy For The Tightness In The Foreskin That Never Gets Retracted?

Hi, i have a very tight skin which never gets retracted. I have been to a doctor few months ago and he suggested circumcision is the only option for me. I just wanted a second opinion about this. Is it advisable to get circumcised at an age of 25? How much does it cost in India for circumcision procedure?

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have tight foreskin which prevents retraction of foreskin over glans penis This is called as Phimosis.

The only treatment option is to get circumcised ,

This is a simple surgery done by qualified General Surgeon done under local anaesthesia as a out patient procedure and offers permanent cure so as to have enjoyable sexual life in future.

There is no harm in doing it at the age of 25 years .
