Hopefully Having a Circumcicion Due to Medical Reasons
Posted: 04-14-07 00:02am

Hi everyone new here so bare with me.

I'm a 20 year old male and from a young teen age I noticed I could not pull my foreskin back when it wasn't erect or even when it was erect. I started to be able to pull it back when I was in the bath when it wasn't erect from a young teen age. It pulls back just fine now weather in the bath or not so I guess what I was doing in the bath worked I also used to pull it back and leave it back for an hour or two throughout the day to help stretch it. Only since about 2 years ago have I managed to be able to pull it back when its erect but it used to hurt loads trying. I can pull it back now when my penis is erect but its exstremely tight and the string bit underneath goes white as its being pulled so tight, probibly very close to tearing if I was to have sex like that, infact it would be to paintful to even try like that as I cannot masterbate when my foreskin is pulled back and erect at the same time. When my penis is erect normally it has no intentions of wanting to pull the foreskin back at all anyways. Sometimes the tip of my forskin tears slightly on the top of the skin like half a mm so its not deep but its gets very sore and theres even slight scarring from previous tears. Practicing in the bath from a young age has gotten me pretty far in being able to pull it back but its come to a point were its to painfull as it tears if I keep trying and the other day it actually swelled up around the tip of the foreskin underneath were all the blood vessals are. When my penis is erect and I do pull the foreskin back the foreskin will roll back and not slide back. So it looks kinda like a lip under the head of the penis which is pulling the thin string bit underneath to be far to tight. So the day after it swelled up I went to the docters and he booked me an apointment in a general urolgy clinic.

I just wondered if anyone else has had this problem or has had a circumcicion at a late age and would kinda give me any advice. I don't know yet they may not even circumcise me but I think they need to as this is a medical issue and nothing to do with religion as I'm physical in pain at times. If they was to circumcise me they would only need to snip a good cm tops anymore then the head of my penis would rub against fabric in my underwear and would make my penis feel to sore all the time as its now to sensitive due to the fact its pretty much always been behind the foreskin.

I have a similar problem.

I believe it is called "frenulum breve" which means the frenulum is too short and stopping the foreskin from going back. Apparently you might not need to have a circumcision to solve this problem. Something called a frenuloplasty procedure.

I suggest you read this thread - http://ehealthfor um.com/health/topic51059.html

And read the wikipedia entries on frenulum breve -

Hi thanks for the reply.

Yes it seems the frenulum breve is seriously the problem. Also I seriously thinks its my foreskin to as when I pull it back slightly you can see its actually tight before its even started to bother the frenulum. Its tight enough to look like a band around the tip. Well thats how the doc put it lol.

I'll go check it out and see what happens. My apointments late may though.

I havn't told my parents yet but I'm due to receive a latter soon with all the apointment details onit so I guess if they see it they will find out. I just don't know how to tell them right now. Or might not even bother.

Local anerstetic would be nice if they was to do something. I had that last june due to an operation I have on my lower back. Puts you right to sleep, feels quite nice. Also I here people have had 3 needles in the penis to numb it so they can do the whole process while your awake.

Hey. I suffer from the exact same thing, i tried stretching exercises but it just gets stuck and constricts my glans halfway down the head when erect. Then if i try further the frenelum comes into play and i feel that pulling uncomfortably tight. Sad My parents can tell there's something up with me coz im down and all that but i can't bring myself to tell them when they ask! Embarassed I've thought the same about the circumcision, the skin under my foreskin is painfully sensitive though (maybe coz the smegma stuff had collected over the years which i cleaned up when flacid the other week) and if this is exposed it will sting in my underwear (unless i get it treated if there is a treatment).....anyone with any suggestions please??
