Betamethasone cream 0.05% is the cream most often used to in the treatment of a tight foreskin (phimosis). Betamethasone cream works about 90% of the time to treat a tight foreskin. Using bethamethasone cream plus using your fingers to gradually stretch your foreskin over a period of weeks is even more effective. For more information on this, you can search Wikianswers for, "How do you stretch your foreskin?" Bethamethasone is available by prescription from your doctor. Clinical studies have prooved that it is effective. If it is impossible for you to see a doctor, hydrocortisone 1.0% cream may be used instead; however, this is far less likely to be effective and should be used only when there is no way possible to get a prescription from your doctor for betamethasone.
The inability to retract your foreskin is a condition called phimosis and if you have that problem then you should schedule an appointment with your doctor to determine the reason and correct it. If it is left uncorrected it can increase the risk of infection and can even lead to penile cancer.
If you go to the doctor there is a steroid cream that they can prescribe that may be able to loosen it.
Simple stretching exercises. will get it working properly within a couple of weeks be gentle but firm. stop if you are experiencing pain and continue later doing it under warm water or with with a skin softening lotion is also very helpful

Partial circumcision removes only part of the foreskin. Partial foreskin may be used to treat phimosis (a tight foreskin) that does not respond to gradual stretching exercises with a corticosteroid cream. Instead of removing the entire foreskin, partial circumcision only removes the tight phimotic ring that prevents the foreskin from being retracted. Many men with phimosis prefer partial circumcision to complete circumcision as it retains most of the foreskin, which functions in several ways to increase pleasure during sexual activity.
That is perfectly normal, and nothing to worry about.
This is called phimosis, where the skin of the foreskin becomes tight and sometimes painful. It can be alleviated by gentle stretching and if this does not help, surgery or circumcision can be indicated.
Could be a tight foreskin, or something wrong internally. Painful erections should be looked at by a doctor.
If it is doing what it is supposed to do. which is cause the foreskin to move back over the glans of the penis when it is flaccid. it is easily distinguishable when puling the foreskin right back as a separate chord like entity that reaches from the glans to the foreskin for about 15mm until it seems to blend back into the foreskin. so it is not actually tight at all it only becomes tight when the foreskin is pulled back. the tightens of the frenulum may well be associated with the tightness of the foreskin round the penis itself. loosen the foreskin and you loosen the frenulum.
You may need a circumcision if you have a tight foreskin. Do not force it out as this could be very painful and damaging. If you have tried gently moving the foreskin back n forth and it will not freely go over the glans then ask to see your doctor who will be best to advise you.
If the foreskin is too tight or not, if it can be pulled back so you can clean under it.
rap some tight selatape round the foreskin:], i do it often, it actuly works, you get a better longer feeling:D
No, sex should not hurt. Sex may hurt if your foreskin is too tight and can not slide up and down over the head easily. For information on how to fix this with gradual stretching exercises, search on Wikianswers for "How do you stretch your foreskin?"
I think you are asking if you need to have a circumcision ! This all depends on how tight your foreskin is, it is not normal practise anymore to remove the foreskin unless it is needed medically. Usually it is done when you are still a child but it can be done for adults also. The foreskin should be able to move over the glans freely without causing pain. There are circumcisions on religious grounds. The Jewish faith still circumcise their baby boys. The foreskin need never be removed for any reason but to treat an existing medical condition that can not be dealt with in any other way. tight foreskins can be loosened in order for them to be able to move easily back and forth over the glans penis. The foreskin is an important part of the operation of the penis and is a or erogenous zone.
