I'm dealing with a problem where the foreskin on my penis is really tight, and I can't pull it back at all. I can't see the inside of my penis, and it seems like others my age can do this easily. I've heard that having a tight foreskin can cause pain and maybe even bleeding during sex. I'm not sure what I should do about it, could you help me out with some advice?

To address this issue, you can try using a topical steroid cream such as Betamethasone 0.05% cream. Apply a small amount of the cream to the tight part of the foreskin twice a day for about 4-6 weeks. This can help to reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. In severe cases where conservative measures do not work, a circumcision may be recommended by a healthcare professional. This is a minor surgical procedure where the foreskin is removed. However, it is important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

View allI've been having some trouble with my foreskin since I can't pull it back when my penis is erect, and it really hurts when I try. I'm wondering, could this be phimosis or maybe paraphimosis? Also, I'm curious if there's a way to treat this without surgery, or is surgery the way to go? If I do need surgery, is it safe to have it done at my age, and should I be worried about any side effects?
You may be experiencing phimosis, which is the inability to fully retract the foreskin over the head of the penis. This can cause pain and discomfort, especially during erections. Phimosis is different from paraphimosis, which is a medical emergency where the retracted foreskin cannot be returned to its original position. For phimosis treatment, you can try using topical steroid creams such as Betamethasone or Hydrocortisone. These creams can help to soften the foreskin and make it easier to retract. You can apply a pea-sized amount of the cream to the tight area twice a day for a few weeks. If conservative treatments do not work, then circumcision surgery may be recommended.

I've been prone masturbating for the past five years and just realized what it could lead to. I've tried using my hands, but it really didn't work for me. When I tried prone again, it worked. Does it usually take time to get used to using hands? I really don't want to go prone again. Is it normal for someone who's been doing this for five or six years to have trouble adjusting to using their hands?
