Thank you for your question. You are correct in your assessment. Such a condition where the foreskin cannot be withdrawn is called phimosis. The defiNitive treatment for this is an operation called circumcision. A general surgeon is the doctor you need to see to get your problem assessed and treated.
Next Steps
see a surgeon for examination and discussion about best treatment option.
