>Hi Greg,
Unfortunately what you have described is not all that uncommon. The problem is that once you start stretching you have got to continue till the problem is permanently sorted. For some people, stretching does not provide the solution. Stretching the skin can cause tiny tears in it and as they heal, the elasticity will decrease which only makes the problem worse. Sounds to me like that is where you have arrived.
Have you considered having a circumcision? It is not all that bad - a bit uncomfortable for the first two weeks but thereafter your phimosis woes are over. I think we in this country are too squeemish about circumcision, but some people find it sexy! There is NOTHING sexy about phimosis.
Best wishes with it.
