Problem with foreskin

---

I'm 18, and when flacid, can retract my foreskin no problem. When I am erect thought, it seems like my head is a bit big, and I have to retract it slowly, and even when it it beyond my head it feels tight. I'm just wondering if this problem could be solved? Or is the only way to fix it through circumscion?

If you have a quick look at many of the threads in this forum, you'll see that other experiencing this problem use the technique of stretching. It's not uncommon, and many have it even worse that what you describe. Have a look around, have a read, give it a try and let us know how you go. It's not hard or painful, but can take a little time and dedication. You can definately fix it up, so don't give up.Good luck.

Hey bud, some stretching of the opening of your foreskin will help with this and it won't feel so tight anymore. Look around for some tips and suggestions on this thread. If you need more help, please just let us know.

any particular thread that will help? How long for me to see results?

Hey bud, up on thread in the male anatomy one you'll find a link to some stretching assistance. Take a look around there and if you've got more questions, just let me know. Its hard to tell how long it'll take, depends alot on your patience and consistency working with it..and of course, how tight it really is.

So basically just streth the top int he shower? For how long am I supposed to do this and how would will it take to get resutls?

It does work best when your skin is warm because it is more pliable (easy to stretch and work with) The time it takes is different for each of us. Main thing is to work with it daily and be consistent. Some guys are able to complete the process in a few weeks or even several months. All depends on how tight your foreskin really is and how much you work with it.

I mean how long should I be stretching in the shower, so far in the 1-2 weeks I've done this I've seen no results, is it a certainty this will work?

How about telling us what you are doing, how long, and how often?

I'm just stretching the top of the foreskin (putting fingers inside) for a minute in the shower

A minute is nothing. You need to be working it 10-15..30 minutes if you can everyday. You don't have to be in the shower to do this although it help loosen up the skin.

That Long EVERY DAY?

You got it.

You could always leave it as it is. Women quite like trying to get the helmet out a slightly tight sheath. (if they know about foreskins). As long as you maintain hygene.

Joecansee ... If you haven't noticed any progress after several weeks, you may not be sufficiently stretching the skin. Also, if you don't want to spend 15 minutes in the shower every day with a finger slipped up into your foreskin, try this: When you go to bed, pull your foreskin out with one hand and insert a finger or two (as many as you can get in), and leave them there until you fall asleep. Over time, as the opening enlarges, progressively insert more fingers, so that the skin is stressed. Lubing the fingers first may help them slip smoothly inside.Korydon

Is there any other way to do this? I mean I don't think I will spend at least 15 minutes a day playing with my foreskin. Like would this really hurt during sex? Would that itself correct it after a few times?

Devote as many minutes a day to increasing the size of your foreskin opening as you wish, even if it's only one or two. The sooner you begin, the sooner you'll become naturally retractable. The important thing is to take the matter into your own hands and solve it through a regular exercise program. Do the exercise at the same time, every day, and it will quickly become routine. But make it an enjoyable, challenging experience. You can have perfectly fine sex if you aren't retractable, millions of men worldwide can attest to that ... but having a dynamically usable foreskin is preferable, by far. And no, intercourse won't increase the size of the opening, but neither should sex hurt, quite the opposite. Rood

Circumcision is not the way to solve this problem, it can be solved through a little bit of stretching. All you have to do is when you're flaccid is grab the top opening of your foreskin and stretch outwards, holding it for maybe 5 seconds or less and just alternate sides (i.e. Top and bottom of the penis, and the sides of the penis). And if you really feel that it is tight, you can just masturbate by sliding it repetedly over your glans up and down, that way it will eventually loosen it in time.

I thought it would hurt because the foreskin would automatically move back and forth

Hey, Joe, the foreskin is supposed to move "back and forth". That's how it works, both for masturbation and for intercourse. The sensation should be dramatic, delightful, and addictive, never painful. Korydon
