I'm an 18-year-old guy and I've got this really tight foreskin, like phimosis or something. I can't pull it back when Im hard and not even when Im soft. It moves a little but stops when the opening gets to about a centimeter. Trying to move it further hurts a lot, so stretching it seems impossible. I've never had sex, and Im worried about how this might affect things. Is having sex possible with this condition, or am I going to need circumcision? I'm really hoping to avoid that if I can.

-It's still possible to have sex with phimosis, but it may be uncomfortable or painful. You could try gentle stretching exercises or consult a doctor about other treatment options like topical creams or non-surgical methods, which may help avoid circumcis

I'm really worried because while having sex with my wife, as soon as I went in, my penis started bleeding from the area where the foreskin is attached to the pee hole. Can you tell me what might be happening and what I should do?
I'm sorry to hear about this. Bleeding from the area where the foreskin is attached could be due to friction or irritation. It's important to keep the area clean and avoid further irritation. If the bleeding continues or you experience pain, it's advisable to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough examination and proper guidance.

I'm dealing with an ongoing infection under my foreskin and on the top of my penis. I've been seeing a dermatologist for a couple of months, and while it got better at first, the infection hasn't completely gone away and seems to have gotten worse again. Should I stick with the dermatologist, or is it time to see a urologist? Any advice on what I should do next?
that looks like venereal disease , ask your dermatologist fpr appropriate approach there will be seperate kit for each such disease u can ask for such treatment, personal hygiene is most important and refrain from sexual activity untill you are completely recovered.
