Hi There, I am a 25 yr old male, only recently did i start looking into why i cant pull back my foreskin. My current gf thought it strange and said she had never seen anything like that.? I mean i cant pull it back at all..I cant even see the actual head of my penis..There is a small small hole at the end of the skin from which i can pee(and have been doing so just fine, as well as ejactulating), but lately with sex comes a great deal of pain, almost the sensation of feeling restricted..I get an erection but it feels like its strecthing the skin and becomes painful becaus ethe head of my penis is trapped?..Should i go get circumsised?? Can i even be circumsised at this age?? Please Help!! Is it a huge recovery process?? Just looking for solutions?

You can get circumsised at your age. But before you do that, make an appt with your doctor. It sounds to me like you have phimosis or a constriction of the foreskin, or even that your foreskin has not seperated from the head of your penis at all. My son had this. His doctor gave me this device (for the life of me I cannot remember what its called) that is like a rubber band. It stretches the foreskin slowly and gently to allow it to naturally seperate. Go to your doc and see what the best solution for you is.

foreskin solutions

see your dr. to have it taken care of. at 23 yrs i had elected to get cut and to this day i regret it. i wish i had my foreskin back. sounds like your problem was that since childhood you never retracted the foreskin so it could become flexible. as a kid i was instructed to always pull it back which made it easily slip behind the head. again, i can now compare sex with the before and after and i definitely enjoyed sex better with a foreskin. last point, baths (not showers) also serve a cleansing function for guys with foreskins and well as making the skin pliable to retract.
