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've got a small cut on my foreskin that bled when it first happened and was painful. It doesn't bleed anymore, but sometimes I still feel pain, and it hasn't healed yet. What's going on, and should I be worried about this?
It sounds like you may have a small cut on your foreskin that is taking some time to heal. To help with the healing process and reduce pain, you can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Polysporin on the cut twice a day. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol to help with the pain. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and try to avoid any activities that may irritate the cut further. If the cut does not show signs of improvement or if the pain persists, it would be best to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.
