A member asked:
Hey i am not able to retract the foreskin of my penis?

It happens: The condition is called phimosis. Please do not try to force it because it could then form a tight noose around the glans and cut its blood supply. If this bothers you consult with a surgeon or urologist. There are procedures they can do that safely eliminate the problem.
