The medical term for a tight foreskin is phimosis. Sometimes phimosis is a temporary problem and easily treated. But because this is occurring frequently, it definitely needs medical attention as soon as possible. If very tight, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RETRACT IT. See a doctor soon, preferably a urologist. Good luck.

It can depend on many things like sex, temperature etc. If it is not a big problem then keep the foreskin and head clean and maybe use baby lotion or mild cream. If it bothers you a lot you will need circumcision.
