I fear I might be suffering frm Phimosis
I believe I have phimosis. I am not able to retract my skin when fully effect. I can do it when it's normal. During intercourse it's not possible to go through it as the foreskin pushes back and the pain is way too much to go ahead. Although under shower I have retracted the skin when almost errect a couple of time but with great great difficulty and could keep it only for a few seconds till the pain becomes high and I have to put it back to normal.

Phimosis refers to the inability to retract the distal foreskin over the glans penis. Pathologic phimosis defines an inability to retract the foreskin after it was previously retractible or after puberty, usually secondary to distal scarring of the foreskin...almost all cases of phimosis have been shown to respond to application of topical steroids to the preputial orifice, although some studies have suggested that this response rate may decline several months after the regimen is completed. An initial attempt at medical intervention has been shown told reduce costs in comparison with primary circumcision as a treatment...consult nearest urologist they will help you further.
