hey guys, ive read the posts however i am not sure whether the problems some are experiencing are those that i am experiencing. i definitely have phimosis.
i cannot pull back my foreskin whether erect or flaccid; when i try i can see the small opening of my urethra....
when i try to go further it hurts... it seems my foreskin is also dry and when i try stretching exercises it cracks and hurts....
now why i am experiencing a difficulty with the exercises apart from the dryness and the soreness is the fact that the tight part of the skin is a bit deep inside my foreskin, the ring is inside ... i can put a finger inside but cant seem to pull the ring apart- its too small, and when i do try its not pulling the tight area just the loose skin on top which is fairly stretchable... not sure this is making sense so far?
my question is how do i stretch this tight ring when its inside and i cant even put my finger inside there without causing irritation to the dry skin outside which seems to crack when i do try.
i spoke with a urologist who told me circumcision is the only option as the skin has become too tight and seems to have caused scarring on the inside- one of the reasons it doesnt retract.
thanks for any help - at this point it seems ill have to get a circumcision but i would like to avoid it if possible.
