my penis head is sensitive, I cannot make the foreskin protect it, what to do?

Guest over a year ago

I'm 14 and recently visited the doctor about this. I was really worried it would impact my sex life in future and decided the embarrassment of the doctor was not as much as not being able to perform :-) He referred me to a specialist and they said I had phimosis. It is where the foreskin is too tight and can not be retracted. He gave me a cream called betamethasone valerate. It helps stretch the skin slightly and makes retraction easier. It doesn't hurt and is really easy to use. Now I can get my foreskin back, but the glands, after so long being protected by the foreskin, are really sensitive. I had a lot of smegma but I find, since my head is sensitive, the using my wrist to slowly clean the glands is not as painful as the skin on the wrist is softer than that of the hand (TOP TIP!! :-P). Now it is still sensitive, but I intend to try and sleep with the foreskin retracted.

If you have a worry just go see your doctor! They see things like this all the time, and going now means you can get it sorted out sooner rather than later. I was really worried but now I'm fine and should hopefully have a desensitised head soon. Good luck guys.

Stop stressing guys! I used to have the same problem, when I was 15-16 I couldn't retract my foreskin all the way and any part of the head that was exposed was ever so sensitive!
But have no fear, a year later and it's all good.
What you have to do is while in a bath or in a shower (try to do this in the bath). Pull your foreskin back slowly as far as you can and hold it there for 2-3 minutes. Repeat this a few times during the bath and then continue it for 2-3 weeks, you'll notice such a massive difference. It only takes approximately 2-4 weeks to completely retract it if this process is done daily.
As for the sensitivity, it might be hard at first as it's so painful to touch, but drop water on it. Also try and get some sort of lubricant on your finger and gentle rub it on your head, you'll find you can touch the head with some sort of lubricant.
Do this till you can touch your head with your bare finger and boom, within a few weeks, the sensitivity will be pleasurable!

Lol, I never knew that I had this problem until today when I had sex with my girlfriend. It was the first time I've ever had sex and I thought masturbating with rubbing my foreskin on my head was normal.

Well when I was having sex it was a PAIN IN THE ASS to get the condom on without pulling my foreskin back all the way. And let me tell you this, it hurt more than getting pinched hard. I had no clue why this was happening so when we were done, well I wasn't done... I had to finish by masturbating the rest, but after that my brother came to pick me up, he explained everything and why it hurt and how he had the same problem.. As of now I've been keeping my foreskin back all day. I hope my sensitivity and pain will soon go away because I want mine and my girlfriends next sexual intercourse to be amazing.

Well i've been having my foreskin retracted for about a few hours now, and i can just say, its not that sensitive as it was before i dont know how it got less sensitive so fast, but i kinda feels nice, i think im going to try to sleep with the foreskin retracted. This is no serious problem guys, just go for it, i mean really we're men and we can maanage a bit of pain eh?

You've discovered the best thing about NOT being circumcised. When you keep it uncovered long enough to dry it out completely it feels great when you touch it. And you can dry rub it to masturbate for really great sensations. Then put it back inside it's cover so it stays sensitive enough so you can do it all over again.

You need to stretch the opening so it will slide back over the head. You can do it by pulling it back when you're erect enough to stretch it a bit and hold it there for 10 minutes or more. If you can't keep an erection long enough to do that you can try to insert two fingers in there and force it open a little and hold it stretched for 10 minutes or so. The more often you do it the sooner it will stretch so you can pull it back over the head.

Just recently gotten into this part as being 20 I was gonna have lots if sex soon. So I needed to get my penis normal. It's been almost 24 hours my penis skin retracted and it's still sensitive as f**k. I have been shot before and comparing this pain to that it's around 5x worse. Should I just continue and leave it retracted for a week? I can't pull the skin back up due to the sensitivity and pain. If I do it just slides back down anyways. Guess this means war penis!

Use soap and rub it on the head . I have this very same problem at the minute and soap helps to numb the pain at the head.

I've been dealing with this problem for the last five years, and more or less ignoring it and trying to convince myself it will fix itself. It's never been a problem in relationships because I simply explain that it's difficult for my foreskin to retract and my partners have never seemed to care. It's definately good to see how common this all actually is.

As of a couple of weeks ago after years and years of slowly stretching my foreskin, I can happily say it completely retracts now when I am erect. I think for comfort it could still do with a little bit more stretching though. And for the guys who say they can't roll it back up because the skin is sensitive, what I do is kinda nudge the outer skin below it and it pops back over the head.

The only thing I'm left to deal with now is the head sensitivity. I thought cleaning it daily was good enough to help but I see some people advise against soap so maybe I've been making it worse. Anyway I am going to try sleeping with it retracted and see how that goes. This is all such a pain in the ass (well, penis) and I wish my parents had explained how to do all this when I was a child.

Don't blame your parents for that, they most likely didn't know either. Before we had a forum like this, nobody talked about these things. It's not exactly the type of stuff you get together to discuss over coffee or drinks. When I was young no one gave us any information. What we did get was usually incorrect garbage from some other guy our own age who wanted to make us think he was the hero.

When Playboy showed up in 1953, that was the first source of any of this information that was readily available to normal people. It wasn't just the naked Marilyn Monroe pictures. They had some informative articles too. I never cared much for the big boobs they always featured and how many girls really have so much pubic hair you can't tell there's a vulva under it? The air brush guy made them all look like they were wearing a fur bikini. If doctors knew anything, they were certainly hesitant to tell anyone because it was such a taboo subject. Even today it's hard to get any truly meaningful classes about it into our schools.

I think what most of us are doing here is sharing our own experiences and what has worked for us. Like I learned a long time ago that washing my glans with soap was one of those things you pay for a few hours later. For me anyway, if I gave it a good rub down using soap as a lubricant it would hurt like h*ll in a few hours and rinsing it after it began to hurt did no good at all.

Other things like stretching my foreskin, I figured out for myself, along with my own method for desensitizing my glans and keeping my frenulum from reconnecting after getting torn. All things I had to figure out on my own because there was no place to go to get information about it.

So be thankful for this forum even though there is a lot of screwy information being passed around here because it's the internet, there is also some seriously good and helpful information.
