What Causes Pain During Retraction Of Foreskin Of Penis?
Question: I have difficulty piling the foreskin back without pain on the head of my penis
Brief Answer:
There might be some scarring underneath the foreskin.
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this pain you feel each time you try pulling the foreskin over the penis. This is suggestive of a possible inflammatory reaction that tends to glue the foreskin to the head of the penis underneath. I will recommend that you try to inspect the head of the penis and the skin of the foreskin of any possible infection that might explain this. If this is the case, then we ill need to evaluate and treat the wounds carefully. If it is visibly swollen, then this needs to be addressed early.
Otherwise, keep me updated with more information on what you find inspecting this area and any more information.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
