A tight foreskin (Phimosis) may be down to your masturbation habits. It may be simple to cure without circumcision.
The average age for the foreskin to retract is 10 years of age. For some boys though it doesn't become retractable until the early teenage years.
Certain masturbation techniques that differ from the normal up and down motion mimicking sex can damage both the foreskin and the 3 delicate spongy arteries within the penis.
Examples of damaging masturbation habits include:
*Rubbing the penis head through clothes - often pushing down on the penis. And :
*Thrusting against the bed.
This does 2 things. Firstly, rubbing the top of the foreskin and manipulating it in an unnatural manner creates scar tissue. This scar tissue is inelastic. Normal foreskin tissue is pliable making it easier to retract.
Secondly, the large pressure applied to the penis means that the spongy arteries that make up the penis may be damaged. Consequently, the penis doesn't fill up with blood properly and doesn't stretch the skin from the inside-out in the normal manner.
Check for signs of damage:
The glans (the head underneath) can be sensitive and
Each side of the pee-slit is red.
So, do you do any of these techniques? I'd be interested to know.
Presuming you do, a few things you need to do to cure the unretractable foreskin.
Initially , give your penis time to repair the spongy arteries that may have been damaged. Do this by masturbating as little as possible initially. You can start doing it again after a while - but don't do it too frequently.
Then, change to the masturbation technique where you just move the foreskin up and down applying as little pressure as possible. Stop any 'rubbing' masturbation techniques.
I'm pretty sure if you stick with this advice - it will retract in no time.
If you do the above you won't need a circumcision. Circumcision is bad for several reasons.
The foreskin contains many specialized nerves on it's underside. When the foreskin is moved up and down it is very pleasurable. Circumcised men have lost this ability to masturbate easily as there is no gliding effect. Circumcised men often have to resort to artificial lubrication in masturbation and sex.
Without the foreskin protecting the glans, circumcised men lose further sensitivity. The glans (head of the penis) dries out. It also brushes on underwear causing the skin to toughen.
There are good reasons to believe that sex is better for the woman as well, if the man has his foreskin intact
Circumcision is also a risky procedure with a lot of complications:
