>And here I thought I was one in a million with this problem of mine. I never really thought to look on the internet!
>I'm 19 years old, and I just recently managed to pull the foreskin over the head for the first time. I have done it a handful of times since, but it's not really something that I enjoy doing! Not only does the extremely tight feeling remain after it's been retracted (I can only retract it to fully uncover the head, it simply won't come down any further.), but the head also HURTS to touch! I was in the middle of doing this one time, and I had the immediate need to "cover up", and the feeling of my boxers touching the head was VERY uncomfortable and a little painful! I also tried washing it, but the feeling of hot soapy water touching the exposed head was also very painful.
>Is this normal? What can I do to stop the pain? Will it ease over time?

>Is this normal?
Yes, it's all normal. Keep stretching and soon it will go all down the shaft. I had that same burning feeling when I could not retract readily. That level of sensitivity will abate. Your glans and foreskin do not need soap to be clean. A thorough rinsing with clean water is excellent and should sting less. Recommend that when you masturbate you don't tough the glans, just move the foreskin over it like a sleeve. Have a happy.
