>My foreskin has quite a bit of overhang. Even when erect it covers almost the entire glans. The foreskin is not extremely wide. Also it will not remain retracted by itself. Once the foreskin is pulled behind the head of my erect penis, it will not remain in that position. It will just roll back over the glans. Is this normal?
>My erect penis looks quite a lot like this image. When a foreskin is retracted, is just below the glans the maximum like in the picture or should a foreskin be able to move further? When flaccid this is not a problem, however retracting the foreskin further than shown in the picture when my penis is erect does give me some pain. A white band is noticable on the foreskin around my penis.
>A couple of months ago, my frenulum was lengthened by means of an incision. However if I were to retract my foreskin further than shown in the picture, the head of my penis does deform a little. Can my frenulum still be to short? Is this white band an indication of a slight phimosis? Is a foreskin still strechable at my age(28)?
