As an answer to: Trouble With Retracting My Foreskin! written by Mark at 13 Jan 2003 19:21:43:
Little kids may get problems from urine when it mixes with feces in their diapers, but normally they don't use computers to visit forums, so we have to assume that you are out of diapers. Now the big question is if you still go poopoo in your pants. If not, urine is not going to cause any infections under your foreskin. The inside of the foreskin is lined with similar tissue to that which lines the urethra, so if you are not getting UTIs, you won't be getting infections from the urine.
If you are getting pain during sex when you aren't using lube, then use lube!
From the combination of symptons that you have put together, there is something else going on with you that you and your doctor have failed to recognize. Did your doctor check you for candida? Did he check for diabetes? Whenever skin does not respond to stretching, yeast is one of the first things to suspect. When skin is not infected, it will stretch, so get it out of your head that it won't. Get yourself tested for both yeast and diabetes.
If you'd like more opinions on what cutting off your foreskin will do for you, ask your questions here: http://forum.fathermag.com/circ/055/forum/ No one pulls punches there, so you'll get the truth rather than coverups.
