Thank you in for asking. I can understand the your distress. Yes, the freanulum needs to be inscised and freed from the shaft so as to facilitate easy sliding of foreskin over penis shaft. But it needs to be done by an expert. It does cause discomfort while intercourse as the foreskin is restricted to slide back. If not treated, it may predispose for infection of penis.
Next Steps
Kindly visit a general surgeon.
