i know that i can pull it back its just that i feel sick like im going to throw up. ive never fully got it back before, when i get an erection i can feel it pulling back but i get nervous. what could help me not get so nervous... drinking, maybe pain killers or something? after having sex with a condom it was almost back and i didnt feel any pain or feel nervous seeing it. i duno anything will help thanks.

That's a really weird symptom. It could be a minor anxiety disorder. Do you feel blood rushing when you attempt to retract the foreskin? Does your breathing rate increase? If these accompany the weird uncomfortable feelings than it might be a mental issue over a physical problem with your foreskin (and you make it sound like there's nothing physically wrong with your foreskin).

There are a few things you could try. Just before and when you begin to retract your foreskin, try taking slow and deep breaths. Feel each breath and feel your blood going throughout your body. Try to calm and slow down those sensations. Then begin to retract while maintaining this. Retract slowly and gently, all the while focusing on the breathing and heart rate. This should help.

If that doesn't work, try the same thing except don't look at your penis while you do it. Close your eyes and just feel it retract and open your eyes when you feel it's all the way back. And if that doesn't work, take a deep breath and try to pull back quickly but gently (unless it hurts, in which you must stop promptly).

Since it's mostly a mental thing and a nervous/anxiety issue, there isn't much else you could try. What might help is asking someone else (like your girlfriend) to retract it for you. Then there isn't the anticipation, as you don't precisely know when she's going to do it.

Lastly, ignore any comments about circumcision. That won't solve your problem and it'll just be painful and useless. If you do have a tight foreskin (a condition called phimosis) there are many other treatments (see links 1, 2). Of course being able to fully retract your foreskin is key to keeping it clean underneathe (link 3) as well as contributing to sexual pleasure (links 4, 5, 6). Good luck with anything you try, your problem shouldn't be difficult to treat.
