>I have tight foreskin. It used to be tighter - never retracted over a flaccid penis. At some point (maybe a year or two ago) I realized this is not how it's supposed to be and pulled it back in the shower with some difficulty. It was harder to push it back but I did get it done. Over a period of time due to similar stretching and attempts (both failed and successful) at having sex, it now goes back and forth much easiy when flaccid, and doesn't feel that strange when bare. However when erect, I can pull it back but with difficulty - it's tight over the head and gets stuck behind it. This is uncomfortable and even painful if this happens during sex - especially around the frenulum which I think is also short and pulls the head down. I have to withdraw and use special care with my hands to pull the skin back on. Of course this turns the mood off too. So I usually enjoy other forms of sexual enjoyment hehe :).
>Anyways, my question is how effective is stretching as solving this problem? Are there any success stories for similar problems? It is harder when you're over 20 (I'm 26), since you're not developing anymore? Do I really need to see a doctor?
>Thanks!Ther are a number of success stories reported on these pages, when men were sufficiently diligent. If you are not too old to put on weight without splitting your skin open, then you are not too old to get your foreskin to grow. It's precisely the same process - the skin grows to meet the demand placed on it - except that extra pounds are 24/7. If you could place constant gentle stress on the foreskin, it would be just as inexorable. But it's the big stretch after big meals and with other flexing which gives the biggest impetus to other skin growth, and you can do the same thing with your foreskin and frenulum.
