I'm 14 and I don't know much about foreskin!. I think I have a tight foreskin!. So I've tried stretching it a bit but I really struggle!. It doesn't hurt but every time I pull it back a really tiny bit I sometimes faint each time!. Have any of you got any advice on what I should do!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
lie in the bathtub (or the shower, bath tub is better) the warm water shoudl help it!. try to SLOWLY pull it back inch by inch, if it every starts to hurt STOP! its only gonna make it worse if u pull it back too far!. just keep trying to inch by inch (in this case, not literally an inch at a time, les than that, lol)pull it back and itll be better in no time!.

KEEP IN MIND that this will all happen naturally over time so dont worry too much about it at 14!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

By about the age of 8 your foreskin should have become freely retractable and your parents should have taught you to retract it daily to clean under it and also to retract when urinating so as to prevent urine collecting under it!.

It is not unusual for boys your age to develop a tight foreskin, particularly if it has a long overhang, as you go through puberty if you have not been regularly retracting since a young age!. This is because the glans (head) grows very significantly during puberty and the end of the foreskin doesn't get any natural stimulation to expand as much (if at all)!.

If you cannot fully, freely and painlessly retract your foreskin to expose the whole glans and the coronal sulcus (groove) behind it then you do have phimosis!.

Very slight phimosis (in which the foreskin can be freely retracted right to the rim of the glans but not actually over it) can sometimes be cured by stretching exercises!. However, a more severe phimosis can NEVER be cured this way, even with steroid creams!. As you stretch the foreskin beyond its natural elastic limits tiny tears (invisible to the naked eye) develop in the phimotic tip!. These heal with scar tissue which is even less elastic than the surrounding skin and thus actually make the problem worse!.

The only sure, total and permanent cure for phimosis is the very simple operation of circumcision!. Circumcision additionally has the benefit of providing total protection against paraphimosis, frenulum breve and balanitis!. It also provides a significant degree of protection against some STIs such as chlamydia, HPV and HIV/AIDS!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If stretching exercises aren't working meaning if you are pulling it back as far as you can without pain then holding it for 5 mins and doing that 3+ times a day then go to your doctor and they can give you some sterriod creame that works VERY well!. But if it's not working you do need to go to a doctor, it doesn't matter if you're imbarrased or not!. You need to go!. If you don't and you don't asses the problem then you risk your foreskin tearing when you start having sex!.

You're fainting!? That shouldn't happen!. You're doing the right thing by pulling it back a tiny bit and not so it hurts!. If you keep doing that it should get looser!. There are more detailed stretching exercises online if you look!. If not then you can see your doctor and ask about the betamethasone cream available!.
