Namastey
Your symptomsâtight foreskin that was previously retractable, along with itching and difficulty during intercourseâare suggestive of acquired Phimosis, often associated with chronic local irritation or infection such as Balanitis. The itching indicates ongoing inflammation, which can gradually make the foreskin less elastic and more difficult to retract. Forcing it back can cause small tears, worsening the problem. This is a treatable condition, but it requires proper care and a stepwise approach to reduce inflammation first and then improve skin flexibility.
Next Steps
Maintain strict local hygieneâwash gently with lukewarm water, and only retract the foreskin as much as it moves comfortably without pain. Dry the area thoroughly before covering. Avoid sexual activity or masturbation until irritation subsides, as friction can aggravate symptoms. Do not apply random creams or try forceful retraction. Since this condition has persisted for a year and is affecting your sexual life, it is advisable to seek guided management.

Health Tips
Wear loose, breathable cotton undergarments and avoid moisture accumulation. Keep the area dry after bathing or sweating. Limit excessive
sugar intake and maintain a balanced diet, as recurrent infections can worsen such conditions. Avoid scratching despite itching, as this can lead to further inflammation. Early and consistent care can gradually restore comfort and function, improving both hygiene and sexual wellbeing. Thank you
