Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My foreskin of the penis is tight. Is there any problem in the future during sex? My age is 20 years, male, and single.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

If the foreskin has become inflexible, rigid, and inelastic, it may cause pain while having sex. It usually occurs due to a condition known as phimosis. The main cause being poor genital hygiene. Visit a urologist or a general surgeon to assess whether it will need partial or full circumcision or can be retracted fully without any surgical intervention.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
