You cant remove it.if it is painful or unable to retract the foreskin,then that could be phymosis for which you have to visit your surgeon for appropriate management.

I've been experiencing this really strange itching all over my body, like on my chest, hands, neck, back, and shoulders. The thing is, these marks just show up on my skin like scratch marks, but I swear I didn't scratch myself. It's kind of weird because after some time, they just disappear when the itching stops. I'm starting to get worried about what this could be. Do you have any idea what's going on?
