>To clarify more, I have phimosis and I have only retracted the foreskin of my penis for cleaning and masterbaition. In fact, I only semi-retract it, ... My penis glan is still very sensitive, but maybe because I have not touched it for a while, since I am so aversed from past painful exposures.

Answer:
The first problem is hypersensitivity. This in turn causes aversion to necessary and proper cleaning, which becomes the second problem. This will not get better by avoiding it, and MAY get worse. Gradually, you need to build up to full foreskin retraction, as often and for as long as you can endure. Sensitivity will gradually reduce to a normal and pleasant level so that you can easily clean properly. This is essential for penile health as well as for a good sex life.
