1. Start conservative treatment first: a topical steroid such as clobetasol propionate 0.05% or betamethasone 0.05% applied as a thin film to the tight ring twice daily for 6-8 weeks - use only after a doctor confirms there is no active infection. 2. Along with the cream, do gentle daily stretching: after a warm shower, retract the foreskin to the point of mild tightness (never pain, never force), hold 30-60 seconds, repeat 3-5 times, twice a day. Improvement typically shows in 3-4 weeks. 3. Keep the area clean and dry, retract and wash with plain water only, avoid soap and antiseptics inside, and dry before rolling it back. 4. Always pull the foreskin forward after retracting, bathing or intercourse - this prevents paraphimosis. 5. Use adequate lubricant during intercourse or masturbation to avoid tears at the tip. 6. If the tip looks white, hard or scarred, if there is bleeding, cracking, discharge, burning urine or ballooning while passing urine, conservative treatment is unlikely to work and you need surgical assessment - options include preputioplasty (foreskin-preserving) or circumcision. 7. Also get a fasting blood sugar test; undiagnosed diabetes is a common cause of new-onset foreskin tightness and recurrent balanitis. 8. You can consult me on Practo with a clearer description or images for a proper assessment and a prescription plan, or see me in person at Synergy Multispeciality Hospital, Miraj, where an examination and, if needed, surgical opinion can be arranged.

Caution: never force the foreskin back and never use steroid cream long term without supervision - it thins the skin. Seek emergency care the same day if the foreskin gets stuck behind the glans with swelling, colour change or severe pain (paraphimosis). This is general guidance based on your description; an examination is needed before any prescription.
