Please do not pull back the skin forcefully. That can cause local injury which may cause the skin to become even more tight.
Kindly visit a pediatric surgeon for assessment. If he is having repeated issue, he may benefit from a circumcision.
Make him sit in warm water for 15-20 mins before trying to pull back the foreskin and don't overpull it ...only till the point it can be pulled back comfortably.. sos pediatric surgeon reference if not better with the cream..
