Brief Answer:
circumcision should be considered

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Some people have tightened foreskin and it may lead to painful intercourse.
It can be treated by adequate lubrication during intercourse or by applying steroid agents for some time.
However, these methods may not be sufficient and then circumcision may be the only treatment.
Wish you good health.
