>Because it's been a big problem of mine for over 10 years now, I'd really love to have it fully functional, without any pain. Yes it will hurt for some weeks, but it's better than not being able to have sex at all. I tried stretching but it seems very relunctant. And honestly, I have a big aversion to touching it at all, a circ would force me to deal with it. I have a mental block whenever I go to touch it since I had never before in fear of pain.

Ahhh, I see the point.

Does the foreskin itself hurt or it’s more the head? (PS: in a normal situation, you do NOT need to rub the head of the penis with anything else than your own foreskin or your partner’s vagina.)

I believe it’s very important to overcome this fear.

>Absolutely.. I am leaning more towards a partial circ now. Would removing the frenulum help some? I think it's a big part of my problem in stretching/pain.

The most we know is that the head of your penis is very sensitive. That you have a problem with your frenulum, we don’t know. You have a tight foreskin, and I don’t think it does any good to it that you q-tip around inside (if I understood correctly, you were not only told to do so, but actually did it, is that correct?). So anyway... Not sure what to suggest, but here’s a bit of thought.

Since the head is very sensitive, it’s probably not at all comfortable to tug the foreskin when it’s not slippery inside. Either produce some precum or use some kind of lubrication, and try to do the forward pulling stretching exercises for a little while (say, a couple weeks), and let’s see if that changes something.

As for cleaning, Ivan usually suggests that one buys a syringe and uses it (without the needle of course!) to press water inside while the foreskin is too tight.

Seeing how long the waiting lists are and such, it might be a good idea to spend that time actively.

Eh, dunno if this made much sense; did it?

Also, sorry about the tone of these replies. I didn’t really mean to come off harsh.
