>No, no no. Not drunk nor drugged. I do neither. I'm 15 like that other boy on the forums. I forget what his was but I don't want to see a doctor that much. I can strectch my foreskin back and forth with ease. Ok the top part of my head I can feel better now the sides are still a little numb but getting better. The bottom I can feel as good as the top. The tip of my head is also getting better. The purplish blue look was so slight you could barely even see. Thats just about gone now.
>I dont know if this is rude but I'm new to the terms too, so I can't explain things well. Maybe if I made a simple diagram? It's only numb on the head of my penis. I also must say between my foreskin and my head is slightly red and sore. I noticed there had been some stuff built up there because I hadn't cleaned in a while due to being very busy. I cleaned it thoroughly last night and woke up and the redness was toned down and I could feel better but still not fully better. Maybe the redness was a slight infection of some bacterea or something. Personally, like the other boy here, I hate doctors. I bet he would recommend a circumcism in a second. Plus I agree with the other boy, it's embarassing. But we can get over embarassment.
>I'm glad I found you guys. You've been a great help to me. Thanks for the continued help.

Glad we can help. But I still would recommend going to see a doctor. It is embarrassing but that can be overcome. It's good to hear that you can move your foreskin back and forth so easily and from your description that seems perfectly 'normal'.

So it may be that there's something else wrong, an infection perhaps (these things happen). From some of the things you've written it appears you've been scaring yourself a bit - easy to do on the internet where there's no quality control over the content of what gets written. If you can move your foreskin easily there's no reason for a doctor to tell you to get circumcised (there are arguments regarding susceptibility to certain very rare cancers, but it's easy to scare yourself with those kinds of stories too). And he or she can see if you've got something wrong much more easily than anyone here.
