My problem, please read

OK. I just want to share this because hopefully someone is in the same sitation or one of you can tell me what to do?

I am 17, living in the UK. I am very depressed. I have had phimosis for about a year now, I havn't always had it and I don't know why or how I got it - maybe from an infection, I've never had to guts to go to the doctors.

I have tried stretching since and at one time it was very successful as I could retract the foreskin past the glans, which also desensitized my glans after a while. Unfortunately it went back to being very tight, probably because I wasn't retracting enough.

The situation I have now is still a very tight foreskin BUT my main problem is that the phimotic ring is VERY thick and scar like. It has cracks also and its not actually round and smooth, but it kind of has corners if that makes sense. Its been like this for probably 4 or 5 months and will not change back to smooth NORMAL skin. This is a real problem as stretching just doesn't work.

So my question is is there anything I can do to make the phimotic ring go back to how it was? I mean to how it was before it got all thick and scar like?? Are there creams or anything I can use??

The sitation is hard to explain and I've never seen anyone on the site with the same problem? Hope you understand.

ANY help is very appreciated.
