Hi im a guy in my mid 20s,and like a lot of people on this forum until recently i had no idea that you were supposed to pull your foreskin back.my foreskin tapers over the head and when im errect stays over my glans and i was beginning to think i had a tight foreskin,however i went to my doctor and i pulled it back for him and he said i was ok.i can pull my foreskin back over my head when either soft or errect however iam worried i only recently started pushing my foreskin back(experimenting as such)but have noticed these last few days small cracks on my outer foreskin towards the head,i never had these before am i stretching myself too much my foreskin seems to retract better,but i dont like all these cracks.sorry for the long message but iam worried.please help

Cracks on my foreskin
-
Take a break from stretching. Get some Vitamin E oil and apply it to the forskin. When you start stretching again, use the oil after each session.
-
Okies well i went to the pharmacist and got whats called bio-oil it has vitamin e and a in it will that do ok?...i had a bath tonight and after drying rubbed it into my outer foreskin,hopefully it,ll help.
-
Let's hope so.
-
The cracks are nothing too serious are they?as id be the kinda fella who would worry about this kinda thing,especially with a g/f in london i aint seen since may!lol
-
Well hopefully the cracks are from overstretching, but there is always some possibility that there is some infection or fungus problem going on but you never mentioned any other symptoms that would lead me to belive otherwise.
-
Well no they only appeared since i started pulling my foreskin back behing my glans so hopefully no infection
-
Hey well i still have the cracks not sore as such though iam uncomfortable up at the top of the outer foreskin,anyway i went to a different doctor and he too looked at it and said it pulls back normally,but i have this thing which looks like a scar coming down the side of my penis starting at that part of my foreskin,the doctor said its ok lots of men have it!i think i had it before i started pulling back but it a big longer now,maybe cause i,ve been stretching,any ideas what it is?i know i shouldn,t worry as the doc said its ok.but its still on my mind a bit,am i nuts to worry hmm?

In reply to:a scar coming down the side of my penis starting at that part of my foreskinThe description is kind of lacking. Are you talking about the underside of the penis?
-
No man on the side you know where it ridges up over the head(my foreskin)well at the side and going down the side of my penis,its the same colour as the rest of my foreskin,wish could send ya a pic of it but people might get the wrong idea!(ahh i can still smile)
-
Never heard of that.
-
okies man well i,ll try not to worry about it,as the doc said that scar thing was fine,so are these cracks i have up towards the top of my foreskin anything to worry about(can they stop you having sex etc)?i do think i,ve pulled back too much,but if as the doc says my foreskin pulls back fine should i even be getting these cracks at all?
