SERIOUS PROBLEM. phimosis + frenulum breve

Written by Dude... at 05 Jul 2002 00:40:49:

I am 20, recently became sexually active, and experience great pain when penetrating my girlfriend if she's not VERY lubed. I narrowed it down to four problems.

1. Phimosis. I can barely retract my foreskin when flacid (opening becomes ca. 1cm wide after stretching), and almost not at all when erect. I feel strong tightness around the phimotic ring. I just started stretching and made minor progress, only to discover problem 2.

2. Frenulum breve. Now that I began stretching I can pull my foreskin back more than before, but only at the top. I finally can see my "slit" all the way, and at the bottom of it noticed my frenulum. I can not pull the bottom back AT ALL once the very top of the frenulum is exposed. AT-***CKING-ALL.

3. My glans is EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY sensitive. Even blowing on it hurts. I followed the board's advice and started "exposing" it more, but even the lightest touch hurts.

4. I live in the USA, where everyone is circumcised and urologists don't seem to know much about my conditions.

I would love to stretch, but my frenulum is so tight and phimosis so severe that I don't know if I have the patience.

I'm strongly considering getting circumcised, but am afraid that the sensitivity of my glans will cause PHENOMENAL pain. How long till it'd subside? Painkillers?

Thx all, this site is a lifesaver.

PS - Masturbation is fine, as are blowjobs (sorry for being graphic), as long as the foreskin is up.
