Danny, PaulB is a physician in Australia who would be best qualified to advise you of possibities in your case.

You have described a hard white ring, which often indicates BXO. See the post above which responds to a post a while back concerning the expertise of dermatologists in regard to skin problems, which is what BXO is. Urologists are not skilled in the area of treating skin problems, so before allowing any to cut, make sure you have all of the facts.

>Hi
>i have known i have had a problem for quite some time now and it has really been getting me down. Im 19 and still a virgin as i have been worried how a girl would react to a unusalle penis. I finally got the courage to toalk to someone about it the other day and i talked to my sister. I have now made an appointment at my doctors.
>I cannot retract my foreskin. When flaccid it goes back but gets stuck and is quite difficult to get it back. When errect i can only expose a little of my head. I get a white band of hard skin when i try to retract which is really tight. When i was about 6-7 i can remeber being taken to the doctors and the doctor pulled my foreskin back until it bled.
>After trying streching with no success i realise i may need to lose a bit of skin.
>Now i have made my appointment i am quite worried at what is going to happen. What is the waiting time generally for circumsions? I have been told now some doctors can perform the operation in the surgery. Would a partial circumsion be an option?
>How long does it normally take to heal? I am going on holiday in a montsh time and i dont want to be walking round in pain whilst im there.
>Sorry about the long winded post it has taken me a long time to get the courage to post
